have you tried checking the crank angle sensor
when they start breaking down they tell the ecu the engine has stopped so the injector cuts out and the engine does stop.
OR coil pack can break down when it warms up
both items will cool and start to work again after a short stop.
both expensive so a home tune or the like could help.prob is car would have to breakdown while on tuner!
