Update, turns out spark plugs were wet. Now, car ran well on the way to work. But got stranded at work. I work around mechanics, so couple checked it out and I ended up replacing the ignition coil.

Re: 98 S70 Ignition Problems

FLXC90,
I replaced the wires one by one, and the car ran for a day or two, it didn't begin refusing to start until after I replaced the cap and rotor.

I have a 98 S70 which I have had for 15 months and It has recently started skipping real badly. So because I was unable to know the last time the plugs and wires were replaced I replaced them.

1998 S70 Runs for a bit, but won't restart

I have a car that after a few minutes of running down the road I can turn it off wait a few minutes and it won't start.
If I wait awhile it will restart. It has gas. Any suggestions?
