Code 58 will not cause your problem. It is a known bug in the 92 PCM. PASSKEY or VATS will not kill a running car regardless. All 92'* should always ignore code 58.

Disconnect your battery cables and pull the boots back. Under the boots, you'll likely find corrosion (only visible with boots off). Clean it up, apply dielectric grease, and put the boots back, or simply replace the cables.

This is a common problem x12 a month here.

Also search techinfo for Ground Bus Corrosion.

A 58 is typically something you ignore on a 92, being a PCM bug. VATS is supposed to stop the car from starting to begin with (or shutting off within two minutes of starting with the wrong key).

The stalling is likely a battery connection corrosion issue. Check those out. I don't know if being warmed up affects the battery thing or not, though.

EDIT - Dang, too slow.

Corrosion will do just that. After electricity has been flowing through corrosion (resistance) it heats up, making the problem worse as you drive.
