scan for codes even if the light ain't on , Get it running and test alternator output with your multi tester

Sounds like a bad ignition coil or ignition control module. Often these will work fine when they're cold but break down and fail when they get hot. When it quits, check for spark. If you have none test those two components, when they're still hot. Hope that helps! Jim
