If your car stalls when it reaches normal operating temperature, you might have a problem with your distributor coil. You could also have an issue with the fuel filter since you ran out of gas recently.

Hey there, I had an 88 f150 4.9, with the same problem,, you need to replace the whole distributor, there are points inside for timing. or even a used one,, but may run into same problem. hope this helps
the normal operating temperature for cars is around 190 degrees.
Using a Mercedes 190D-2.2 as an example; Normal operating temperature is around 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep in mind that the clutch operated radiator cooling fan is designed to shut off when the coolant temperature reaches 212 degrees Fahrenheit or 100 degrees Celsius and below. SPKB..
what is normal operating temp.
You run it until the engine reaches normal operating temperature on the temperature gauge this way the oils viscosity will be correct. on colder days you need to run it longer.
About 200 degrees is normal
200 To 210 Normal Operating Temperature For All The Auroras 1995 To 1999
Two different tests you can try. To check the radiator fan, raise the hood and start the engine. Wait until engine warms up to normal operating temperature and see if the fan turns on. If the fan doesn't turn on, the problem lies in a faulty relay or a bad fan motor. If the fan turns on, the problem lies elsewhere. To check the water pump and/or thermostat. Raise the hood, remove the radiator cap and start the engine. Keeping a safe distance, you will peek through the radiator filler neck for activity. When the engine reaches normal operating temperature, the thermostat should open and you should be able to see water circulating. My bet is on either a faulty fan/component or a stuck thermostat as your overheating problem.
Normal around 210
From 195 to 210 degrees is normal.
No, the system is only checked at normal operating pressure.No, the system is only checked at normal operating pressure.
