My 92 PA did the same thing. Either the crank or cam sensor can cause this. Both sensors are needed for the computer to fire a spark plug at the right time. It seems to occur after the engine warms up. When it cools down it will start again. The computer error code should show which one is bad.

It might be a cooling problem such as the thermostat. I think you should get the cooling system checked. Something is causing it to overheat.
