Driving at 75 mph, engine stopped. After sitting 40 minutes at side of the road, the engine restarted and ran normally.
Also, after driving home 23 miles, I stop and go into a store. Upon returning 3 minutes later, the engine will not start. After sitting 30 minutes, it restarts and runs normally.
The car temperature gauge reads normal, but the problems only seem to occur when the car engine is hot.
I suspect this is something to do with a faulty sensor that shuts down or reacts erroneously when a certain temperature is reached.
