problems with my 87 turbo II

i have a 87 turbo II, when i first start the car the engine keeps cutting off, it stays on if i keep my foot on the gas. once the enging become warm it idles fine, but once its been idling for about 10-15 mins the engine cuts off and wont start until it sets for an hour or so, then i have the same problem all over again.. i've checked for vaccum leaks, all filters, changed oil, plugs, ect... cant find the problem... you guys have any ideal whats going on or any suggestion???

I'd bet it's still vacuum leak. Check The duct which goes from the AFM to the turbo inlet. I found mine had a split and loose clamp. Also, the start and immediately stop I experienced was leak in the hose which goes from the Intercooler to the Air Bypass Solenoid Valve.

If it hasn't been done, I would replace ALL the hoses on the top of the engine. Lots of gremlins went away when I did that.
