You have to find out the failing component (DUH).
Where are you checking the spark?  Check it out at the coil lead.  Sometimes
the rotor or cap shorts out due to a carbon streak, especially if you are
using a sports coil.  If two terminals are shorted, the car won't run or not
well.  If there is no spark from the center lead, go to step 2.
2.  When the situation occurs, see if there is power to the coil.  The coil
could be have an internal short when warm.
3.  Did you replace the wires?  The coil lead could have  an internal break
that only occurs after the wire has warmed?

Good Luck
