Many possible reasons: air and fuel filter blockages, check and replace as necessary. Electrical fault in ignition system, take car for a full electrical and electronics diagnostics check. This problem may be the result of any of various old and failing components. Check specifically the sensor inside the distributor (electronic ignition)! This is known to give "intermittent" fault symptoms.

Check for vacuum leaks.

Have someone feather the gas pedal while you listen carefully to the engine. If the leak is bad enough you'll probable hear it.
More than likely, it's either a vacuum hose or the o-rings under the intake manifold.

Hope this helps!

My car dies when I drive for a short time.
Check O2/mapp sensor. Also if you can elaborate on the behavior of the engine as it stalls, is there smoke, does it race then suddenly die out or does it barely run at a very slow unsteady idol until it floods out?

When slowing down & stopping 2005 Mazda tribute sputters and dies
Sounds like it could possibly be a vaccume problem, the computer sees that the vaccume has a low pressure and thus fludding the engine, or visa versa, it's seeing too high of a pressure and cutting the fuel comsumption to a minumum enough to make the engine sputter and die.. Does this happen when the cars in Netural or Reverse or Park? Just Drive?
