I had a problem similar to this a while back where the car would run fine for a while until warmed up and then would die and not restart. It usually died while turning a corner or stopping. Sometimes it would restart but not make it more than a few feet before dying. It turned out to be the crank angle sensor wire was frayed and was not allowing a good connection consistently. Mine is a '92 so I don't know if yours is the same. I was able to confirm this by reading the codes on the computer under the hood before I ordered the part. If you've never done this, look in the FAQ for instructions.

I may be off base here since but since no one else had mentioned it yet, I thought I'd mention it.
