You might have a bad alternator if the battery keeps dying after you run it for a few. You can test it buy hooking another vehical up with jumper cables and seeing if it stays running then. If not check to see if the fuel pump stops or keeps going or if you can check fuel pressure. It could be a fuse somewhere blow. Or a relay messed up.
