[Healeys] Idle dies

Thank heavens!

I thought it was something serious like British comedian Eric Idle dying. 

Just checked and at 73 the Monty Python member is still with us.

My bet is you have a defective (temperature-sensitive) disty rotor.

Car runs great cold. When up to temp the car idles fine at a red light. After a while the toms start to drop. Then it dies.
Prof. Rebuilt carbs. Cleaned and greased distributor . New points, cond. New coil, plugs and wires.  I also replaced the fuel pump and filter. Choke cables are new and greased.
Ideas???
