Question type: Maintenance & Repair

while driving my car would start to shake and loose power like it was going to
die.. when i give it more gas it would accelerate extremely slow and when i
slow down it would eventually end up shutting off completely before i could
get the car stopped... its happened a couple times now and when it happens
it wont start unless i waited for a half hour to and hour then it would start up
and be fine.... but this last time it happen i cant get it to start up

Any codes? Fuel pressure problem, exhaust system restriction. Cam and crank sensors.
