Some engines have a fail safe, and will turn off when they get to hot. How hot is it getting? Its more important to find out why it is overheating then why it is shutting off. Is the coolent level full? check the overspill as well the radator when engine is cool. If level is cool, you may have a stuck thermostat whic is keeping the coolent from flowing. Aslo make sure your cooling fans are working and coming on or spinning. If they are you may have a bad water pump or clogged cooling system.
