Feels something related to fuel injection, but no clue. I have had it to Les Schwabb and to a few places. It has been checked for alternator, main relay, battery, and has new throttle positioning sensor, still shuts off. It sometimes starts back up but sometimes will not.

This sounds like a classic distributor problem which is common with these cars. Remove the distributor cap to check for rust colored dust to confirm the failure. If so here is a unit from Amazon for $92.00.
