I would check the fuel system first, a clogged fuel filter will do this exact thing. The dirt in the tank will collect on the filter until no more fuel will pass through and then after the engine dies the debris falls back to the bottom of the tank then the whole cycle starts again.

Replace the crank position sensor, it's easy and is often the problem.

It could be the Oxygen Sensor. After your vehicle gets up to 600 deg. Your Heated Oxygen will cause your vehicle to run quite rough (bucking/ back firing) and or die.
