Wild West Auto :

Hello and welcome to just answer. Wild West Auto here to help with your question.

Customer :

Wild West Auto :

would try the fuel filter have had a similar situation with a toyota echo and the gas tank was rusted and the filter was stopping up and would not restart after driving and replaced the tank and filter

Wild West Auto :

but would check first remove the filter and chck the elemnt in the filter by dumping out the filter in a clean glass

Customer :

It does it when it has been running for awhile and I stop for a couple of minutes then try to restart it.

Wild West Auto :

yes same sinario also the ignition module is bad to go out on these in the same sinario when this happens have you tryed to spray carb cleaner in the intake to see if it starts faster or if there is spark to the plugs

Wild West Auto :

no other running issue

Customer :

no, I have not

Customer :

no no other issue

Customer :

So what should I do to solve my problem?

Wild West Auto :

first i would verify if it is spark or fuel let the vehicle run until it will not restart or have someone crank the vehicle when this happens and see if there is spark to the plug wires if not module if there is spark try sprtaying some carb cleaner in the intake tube at air filter and see if restarts if so fuel filter
