I eliminated the relay as the issue

The ignition relay is one of the generic metal-capped relays that's identical to about 6 or 7 others in the fuse panel. I switched the IGN relay with I believe rear wiper? or rear defrost? and it behaved the same. There were no signs of oxidation or corrosion on any of the leads, nor down inside the femals connectors that the relay slides into.
I agree that the old flag-style CPS was problematic. I had one go on my '92. It shut off, cooled off and ran, warmed up and died, and only did this 2 or 3 times before finally going completely flat. I've always had experience that a CPS wasn't flaky or temperature dependant. It was either good or bad, but I digress.
