Have your mechanic replace the fuel filter (should be with tune up) He changed out the gas tank (?) Filter at carb is probably choked. Kinda fits the symtoms.
Good luck
Testimonial: "Thanks for the suggestion of the fuel filter. He's said that everything was changed out but that he now needs a computer to check it out. We'll see!"
It sounds like your ignition coil is over heating. Was the coil replaced? Your mechanic should have checked voltage/resistance and replaced if needed since it is not too expensive and is a major part of tune-up and ignition system. You can change yourself in a few minutes and save some cash. I had the same problem and had to wait for coil to cool before it would start again. Hope this helps.
Testimonial: "Thanks so much for that suggestion, I just this morning have someone else kind of mention that and then to get the same comment on here is great. "

I asked the mechanic about the ignition coil and he said that he had replaced that also. This morning it started and so I decided to try driving to work which is about 5 minutes away and it just died as I got to the parking lot of my job. The mechanic says that he's looking for a computer to check the car. Is there such a thing for a 1991 Plymouth Acclaim?
