The symptom much more sounds like something in the gas tank that periodically gets caught in the pickup tube, and when the motor stops, it floats away only to return again at some point. Or perhaps the sediment bowl on the pump is full of crud. Symptoms don't particulary match those of vapor lock.

How recently has the tank been dropped and cleaned? And the fuel pump sediment bowl? That's where I'd start.
