You need to troubleshoot when problem is happening. Is it losing spark and or fuel is the question. You can spray carb or intake cleaner into the throttle body to see if it starts from lack of fuel, or use a spark tester to see if there is a loss of spark.
If it is loss of spark, you may be able to use a hairdryer on the ignition control module or pcm to see if the heat affects it.
