Default Will not hold an idle

I have a 96 Honda Accord v6 2.7 liter automatic 220,000 km it has a problem where when its cold it starts and idles for a minute fine then stops and when its hot it will not idle at all but if I hold the gas pedal and keep the RPM above 2000 it runs fine I have check the compression in the cylinders, fuel pressure, fuel injectors, replaced the distributor cap and rotor and ignitor or ignition control module(witch fixed the misfire) I've checked all the vacuum lines all the spark plugs even tried a different computer in it and it does the same thing with both computers. For a half hour it ran fine then I shut it off and when I started it the issue was back. Also some times it stops at the rev limiter and some times it doesn't? and when it was running good it wouldn't rev past the limiter while driving?

yes, it has good fuel pressure too.
The most consistent things it keeps doing is when its cold it fires up perfect and idles perfect for a minute then dies and the warmer it gets the sooner it dies ?

Did you check whether the car has any trouble codes?
