if it has been run without oil (don't know how this could have happened...stray bullet to the oil pan?) it could lock up...more than likely the coolant level dropped...steam must have been pouring out~

What fails when hot?...the intake air temperature sensor...the ECU temperature sensor...those would shut down the show right proper if came up to temperature and unable to put the correct air/fuel mix in that~

an undervoltage condition as created by a "welded" state from the juncture of the 1/0 black battery cable to the chassis ground...as this--

Did you ever figure out the problem, my car is going the exact same thing!!
