have you checked the alternator? typically if your alternator is not working properly the car will shut off as it can't produce enough power to power everything in the car as well as the spark plugs.

If you end up having to replace your alternator you can use this as a guide.

There are quite a few suspects here: Dirty/bad MAF, VIAS leaks/failure, bad Cam/Crank sensors, bad TPS.
