The car is cutting off sometimes while driving and others after you drive it for less then 10 miles, it has to stay off for at least 2hrs then it will start. Sometimes you can drive for a while and others times just a few miles. The car has gas and the battery is showing fine.

So it dies and then will crank and not start till it cools down?If so sounds like a bad crank shaft position sensor pretty common on those engines.Any codes?You can check the sensor with a multimeter.
