I changed the battery to a Diehard gold, swapped out the rotor, distributor cap, spark plug wires, pcv valve, and air filter, and it still stalls. All that stuff needed changing anyway so it's not too much of a waste, it act's like it's just not getting spark though. It'll start up for 30 seconds then die and won't turn over again unless you leave it alone for a while then just repeat the process. While I was swapping out the wires I did find 2 things, one was what looked to be some sort of plug that was just hanging loose and half melted away, I've yet to trace it to see where it goes but could it have something to do with my non-working temp guage? The other was a wire coming from the alternator that was three-quarters of the way cut and completely corroded, it's not the wire going to the battery, it goes into one of the black sleeves with other wires and back behind the engine. It's been raining here most of the day so I haven't had too much time to try and trace it yet. Thanks for all the reply's thus far though.
