Sounds like you are having electronic problems. I would get the vehicle warmed up to where it quits then do a spark check on a few of the plugs. If your loosing spark with warm engine I would again look at coil pack. I have seen coil packs check out ok when cold and then have spark leak when warmed up. By doing this you can narrow it down to fuel delivery problem or ignition problem.
would take Aztecs advice! Also put a fuel pressure gauge on the fuel supply line,there is a fitting that looks like a tire valve.thats where the gauge is connected.run the engine till its quits again!Turn the ignition switch on you should get a pressure reading, maybe 32-38 psi.--if no pressure replace fuel pump.First replace fuel pump relay! then if neccessary do the pump!
