Default Engine idle

My 1998 3200 will not continue to idle. I replaced plugs,wires,rotor and cap,fuel filter and ignition module. Starts fine and runs for 5 minuets. Then it will shut down. Will start right back up and then does same thing. I thought I replaced everything. What am missing ?
Thanks.

Being a 1998 I’m assuming you have an electric fuel pump so I would look to see if the oil pressure switch is acting up. This switch provides power to the fuel pump when running as long as there is good oil pressure but can become faulty. When starting the starter solenoid provides power to the pump.

In a prior post you mentioned that the plugs being replaced were fouled and you suspected a rich condition. Did you ever resolve that issue?
