tpi computer question

ok..my tpi car runs great cold..when up to temp it starts to cut out and hesitate when accelarating...only when its up to temp!..if you let it sit for 1/2 hour it will run great until its back to temp again..i have checked grounds and replaced everything except the distr...i think i'm going to swap out the distr. for a reg hei..now is there a way to keep the computer in the cold mode?..sounds dumb but just to see if it will affect my problem...any ideas?.. thanks for the help
