Engine stalls after running for 10 minutes. Then it usually restarts after a few seconds.

Hi:
Has the check engine light ever come on? Also, if not, check the fuel pump pressure. You may have a weak pump or partially plugged fuel filter. Here is a "How To" video. The fuel pressure gauges can be rented or some stores will lend them.

Let me know what you find.
