are your lights dimming after you start it or while your trying to start it? i would guess maybe a bad alternator. any codes? get an obd-2 reader and scan for codes, that'll help narrow it down a bit.

I have a riding lawnmower that would run for 10 minutes then quit like it was out of gas. Then if I let it sit for about 20 minutes it will start up and run again. It turned out to be the gas cap has an air valve that needs to be open or the gas tank will develop a vacuum.

When your car stops running, try opening the gas cap to see if something like that could be going on.

It takes about ten minutes for the engine to come up to running temperature.

I'm thinking that the engine control temperature thermostat has bad connection, or is defective.

^known as the ECTS (Engine Coolant Temp Sensor). Simple to diagnose, test, replace if necessary.
