Frequently this is caused by a faulty crank angle sensor. As the engine heats up the sensor goes open circuit and there is no pulse to trigger the spark or the injectors. When it cools enough the circuit reforms and the engine will run for a while.

Replace the crank angle sensor and the problem should go away.

What could cause a car to shake and shut off when stepping on the gas?

I'm not in expert, but it could be ( in winter time) that the car engine is still cold. But if its warm temperature outside, it could have something to do with the gas filter. Its probably blocking from the gas to get to where its supposed to go. It also could be your spark plugs, or wires from the spark plugs. You could check the spark plugs yourself. If the end of the spark plug is dark, like almost black, you need new spark plugs. If you look at the wire from the spark and its worn out, then replace them.


Why aren't the spark plugs getting spark?

Why does a drink get colder with ice?

The water has more heat than ice ... the water looses the heat to the ice the ice melts to become water .. but not warm water .. cold water that also looses heat to the warm water till equilibrium is reached and a final cool temperature is maintained .. but then the air around the water adds heat to the cold water till they all reach equilibrium and the water is warm again ..
