Almost sounds like the fuel pump. As it gets hot it may start to loose it ability to make adequate fuel pressure. Then when it cools down it then can make enough pressure to operate the engine. Then when it gets hot again. The cycle repeats

Try fuel pump for car shutting off and not wanting to crank. Just had to replace mine for that reason
