A year make and model will help find answers. :)
Sounds as if your vehicle is overheating. Is coolant boiling out? Could be anything from low coolant level to a bad rad fan. Have it checked and repaired quickly as overheating can ruin an engine.

Good luck and let us know. :

Not a lot of specific info but it sounds like it is your EFI relay. It controls fuel and spark and is locted high up in the dash above your right knee for a left hand drive car. Good luck
