Fuel pump. I don't know if your model has it in the tank or out or both, but it sounds like a fuel delivery problem.
Check your spark plugs. If they're burned white that means the motor is running lean. Could be a clogged fuel filter or a fuel pump running weak.

I'll put my vote in for a faulty fuel pump. I had a similar problem a few years ago. No one believed that it would be the fuel pump. "They just don't go bad that way". The pump is an electric motor and it has wires. Apparently when it was built the wiring was faulty so sometimes it would conduct electricity and sometimes it wouldn't. It was bad news because I could be out in the "Boonies" and suddenly the engine would sputter and stop. Come back 2 hours later and it would start. Then I could run it a thousand miles before it would happen again (quit again). We changed all kinds of sensors and ignition parts before we finally conceded that it must be the pump. Which it was.
