Default 1998 honda accord V6 problem!!! please help!!!!

here's my problem:
the car is 1998 honda accord ex V6 with automatic tranny
well the last few hundred miles i have experience problem with the car after 100-130 miles of local / freeway driving at a stop sign or traffic light while the car is stopped it will just die for no reason. i have changed cap, rotor, ignition coil, ignition control modular, fuel pump spark plugs oxygen sensor and non of them help with the problem there's no check engine light is there any thing else that you guys think might cause the car to die suddenly??? oh and once the car dies u have to wait 2-4 minutes and the car will start again and drive with no problems for another 80-130 miles then the same thing will happen again.

Main relay or the ECM itself. Also check if your car is involved in a Honda recall for defective Ignition Switches. All three of these will cause your problem.

It sounds like the ECM is loosing power (thus the no lamp issue). Once things cool off, it powers back up and off you got (until it heats up again)

Does it have a fuel filter? You didn't mention that in the parts you swapped out, it may be getting clogged.
