Car runs fine until it gets to running temperature, then conks out but will restart after just a few seconds. Continually does this when at operating temperature.At idle or while cruising. When driving it struggles for
a few seconds than cuts off. It can generally be restarted almost immediately. I actually went 20+ miles doing this to get it back home, stopping every mile or so, restarting, etc. Does not begin until it reaches hot temp, with gas tank empty or full. I've checked the fuel pump relay and, to my knowledge, all fuses.
