To clarify, did you replace the distributor's--
--housing
--cap
--rotor
--igniter
--coil?
Did you use OEM distributor parts or aftermarket ones?
First thing I would have checked was the coil, based on the
symptom that it does not die until after warmup. Had the
same symptom with my 91 Civic a few years ago. It was the
coil. Because the shop was messing with me a bit, I ended up
getting an entire new distributor (all of the above). In
hindsight, given the age of the car and other known ailments
(or coming ailments) with the original distributor, I think
it was a good choice.
