1989 300 SEL STARTING ISSUES

Hello folks. I am totally perplexed on my car at this point. It was stalling in a parking lot after warming up and not crank up. I would let it sit for a bit and it would start and get me home. It did this multiple times as well. I took it to the shop and it needed a tune up for sure. So i replaced plugs,wires,cap rotor,coil etc..... It seemed to run ok and then it started the same issue again. So I replaced the fuel pump,fuel filter, fuel pump relay. Still the same issue. It is back at my house and will hardly crank at all but it eventually will. I am scared to take it anywhere at this point. I also pulled the idle control valve and cleaned it as well. Is there something I have missed. It is really frustrating as this a great old car and I hate seeing her sit. Any help or things I can do to get her going would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks Much

BB
