Question Runs, but a lil' on the rough side; then dies for a time

Got a 95 XJ that cranks up pretty much instantly and runs. Responds fine to throttle, etc. Does run rough tho
Everything I search for leads me to threads that state it instantly dies; mine does not.
It will run for about 5 minutes and die. It will not run again till it sits for awhile.
Only code is something for the alternator
Cap and rotor replaced, as well as good used plugs
Fuel pressure good

Does have blow by and dry compression test is between 100 and 120

Thoughts?
