1983 DL Stalling again in HOT weather. 200

I posted a few weeks back that my 83DL was stalling on hot days.
I then replaced the fuel relays, the old ones were rusty, but not
at the terminals.
Today while out in 95 degree temp. she stalled again while on the
freeway. I attempted to start her up again, she would idle bad and
when I put her in drive there was no power and then she would stall again.
I let her sit for about five minutes then she started right up again
as had been the case a few weeks back.
I drove her to a shady spot and parked her.
After a little rest of about 20 minutes she started right up and I drove home again, like nothing had happened as she had did a few weeks past.

Would my next best bet be to replace the coil?
Could the AMM have caused this problem?

While looking around the engine while she was resting I noticed that the
wires below the coil seem dry with some of the plastic coating cracking off
one of them.

Any and all advice would be appreciated.
Joseph
