HEI module had been installed dry. Put heat transfer grease under it and no change.
Replaced HEI module with a used one that I thought was good.

I didn't die at idle anymore, but then after two mile warm up would die slowing to a stop as you described.

Changed HEI module for a new one and problem gone.

A heat transfer compound is not the same thing as a dielectric grease. Be sure you use the correct heat transfer product as many people will sell you the wrong thing.
I had the same problem and did the module replacement and all was good from then on...
