Loss of compression made the car stall, turned it off then tried again. It started fine. It did it once again then when engine is warm its fine. What would make this happen?

When it stalled I tried to restart it but it sounded like all the plugs had been taken out. Then I tried again and all was good, no coughing or hiccups, there does not seem to be a problem with fuel.
