Default Ignition failed, then worked, now failed

It started when I got off the interstate and got down to low rpms. It was hot and I had the a/c on. The car bogged, then completely shut off. Popping the clutch did nothing, and at first trying to start it produced a little rpm's, but not enough to make it run. After taking a look at it on the side of the road and trying to start it several times, it finally started after about 10 minutes. I drove it for another 4 minutes when it died again, and it hasnt started since. It's turning over and getting fuel, but it's not getting any spark. I checked all the fuses and jiggled all the connections in the bay.

I have a 93 del sol si. I just recently replaced the ignitor coil, and I have had a leaky injector that I think it stuck open.

Has anyone had any similar problems that can maybe lead me in the right direction to fix this problem? Any help is appreciated!

-Joel

you can always try the ignitor....i know it usually goes defective during hot days but then it usually works again after it cools down...
