Dies when hot 85 Camaro 2.8

I have an 85 Camaro 2.8 MPFI 5 speed. Runs great all winter long with no problems at all. Summer comes and Temps out side start getting up around 90 degrees and the car just dies & will not start until the engine cools down. It is not overheating. I am getting no codes. Replaced coil and control module, neither one helped. Summer is coming and would like this fixed before the temps start riseing. This has been going on for 3 summers now. Only happens on really hot days. I live in Minnesota so we don't get that many really hot days. Please Help with any suggestions.
Thanks

P.S. Also looking for a Steering Column for my 89 Iroc Convertible

Replace your ignition parts. Coil, hall effect pickup, rotor, etc. This is more than likely an ignition issue..
