Check air filter and clean throttle body replace fuel filter if have not done so in a while add fuel injector cleaner to gas tank and use the middle grade or high test gas to help clean out the gum and carbon build up.

No check engine light ? Remove positive battery terminal for about 10 seconds and reinstall. Try resetting computer.

Could be the fuel pump is shutting down or a collapsing rubber fuel line. Try this remove gas cap and try to run vehicle and see what happens. I am thinking cap not venting probably causing rubber gas line to collapse.
