Most of the time it's a bad ignition switch. Remove the upper and lower column covers and find Ignition wiring harness. Find a wiring diagram and check for 12 volts from switch to engine after turning to the runs position, or back probe the ignition power wire to the distributor with a muolti-meter. If voltage drops when releasing ignition from start to run, bad ignition switch. (electrical portion)

Just turns off on it's own, Wait 60 sec. restart press pedel it dies.

This engine is electronically controlled so the first thing that must be done here is to have the systems control computer tested for fault codes and then do the proper diagnostics based on those codes.

Dies after running about 2 minutes

It's got all the symptoms of a leak in the fuel line. You may want to start backward at the tank and work your way all the way to the carb to find it but it would be surprising if it was something else. All the best.

Starts fine when cold, after running dies on idle then wont start

Sounds like the fuel filter is dirty and needing to be changed. It's cheap and easy to swap out.
