i got a 92 240 le hatch, kade, stick, with a cai and a muffler on it

the problem: i can drive it for 2-3 miles and when it gets to norm operating temp it shuts off, when i try to start it it cranks over and over and over but wont start up, then after the temp gauge goes back down all the way it starts up fine and the process repeats itself.

what i know: im getting fuel, but no spark. im not getting any power from the coil. i have a blown(sealed) headgasket(clean oil, can't even check if it overheats) i tried to fix the gasket but didnt get very far beacause i couldn't get the egr out of the manifold, and i can't get the nut back on it, so its just sitting on there.

what i've tried: i replaced most of the ignition system. the ecu, coil, ignitor, wires, plugs, cap and rotor.

any help would be greatly appreciated
