I'm having very similar symptoms. When my car heats up it tends to buck when I'm cruising at part throttle. If I'm at a stoplight too long it sometimes just dies. When I'm cruising at low speed through a parking lot or coming to a light the car sometimes dies. It cranks forever until it starts again.

Also, if I go to the store or something and come back out, the car is still good and hot and I really have to crank it/play with the throttle to get it to catch and start again. Please let me know what you come up with.

i suggest you go trhough the same steps i did to figure out mine. Seeing as my prob was the fuel pump you might wanna check that. Since it does still start but has a hard time your gunna get power all the way back untill its actually in the gas tank and at the pump(if thats what the prob is) But like i said i had no idea what mine was and it just turned out to be a superhidded wire in the tank that managed to mangle itself apart. The trouble starting was from the weak connection but when it finnally did give it wouldnt start for ****. And unlike me you dont want to be out driving when that happens cuz then its flatbed all the way home
