Default car turns on then DIES slowly

i have a crx and its my daily for now, well i seem to have a reoccurring problem. Time to time it will turn on fine run for 5 seconds and just drop rpms, idle then DEAD! It would even do that at a stop light, sometimes taking it about a few minutes till it'll start again. idk what to look for in this problem... any ideas?

My 97 Chrysler Cirrus was doing pretty much the same thing. Turned out that the ECU was toast...
