Hi:
Check to make sure the catylatic converter isn't plugged. Also, does it always start right back up when it dies? Have you ever checked fuel pump pressure?

Hi:
try taking it to a nationally recognized parts store and have them scan the computer for codes. They will do it for free and it may provide insight.

Let me know what you find.
