Just a few small things/suggestions to potentially look for. I agree with potential fuel problem as well as compression. Maybe a good time to check you fuel filter, valve covers, etc. Good luck!

The car seemed to die after I let off the gas to coast into the turn. There was still battery power, the radio was on and working. I just had to throw it in neutral and restart it.
I've replaced the plugs (3 months ago), and fuel filter (3 weeks ago) and when I bought it I had it inspected and they said the value cover gaskets had recently been replaced. The car's temperature has never overheated for as long as I've had it.
