Ford Explorer Computer test Problem

This problem has started about 1 year ago and is random. I drive the car for a few errands. I get in and the car will not start. Motor turns over but does not fire. Low oil pressure light comes on and high temperature comes on. After the car sits for maybe 2 hours, it will crank right up. Ford dealer said nothing showed up on computer test, has to run test when event happens. This has happened about 4 times in the last 8 months. Seems like maybe it is not getting gas, but tank is 1/2 full.

check fuel pressure first, then scan for codes and have them try a freeze frame
