Sound like a possible fuel pump problem. A lot of times when a fuel pump is failing it will quit when hot and then restart when cool. Once it dies you can squirt a bit of carb cleaner down the throttle body to see if it starts. Once you have established lack of fuel being the problem you can go from there.
