Does it do it regularly or just once in a great while. If fairly consistent you should be able to have them scan or record data while you drive the car. Then see what is lost.

What does it do as exactly as you can explain. This may help. Just loosing power???

Fuel pump sounds like the issue.....when a car sits that long you need to put some gas stablizer....and they obviously didnt do that.....so, now it is catching back up to you.....
