Default 90 passat stalls after warmup

My 90 passat w/A9 motor stalls after +/- 20 minutes.
Could it be overheating?
Temp gauge = 190 to 220 degrees, occasionally fluctuates.
the fan starts ok, maybe too late?
If so, why would overheating stop the fuel injection?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, -Karl D.-

Does it have an automatic transmission?
Did you access the Engine Control Module with a scanner (like the vag-com by
ross-tech.com) and check for any codes (DTC)?
Have you tuned it up lately?
When did this start happening?

Maybe you could try some real good fuel injection cleaner. Hey it is a
cheap suggestion! lol

later,
