help! 1990 toyota camry shuts off when hot!

I have a 1990 toyota camry 4cly with 90,000 miles, after running for like 20 minutes it just shuts down. It then cranks but won't start After it cools down maybe 20 minutes it starts right up again. After like another 20-30 minutes all the lights come on and it shuts down again. Can someone please help me with this problem Thanks in advance

Check to see if it's missing spark or fuel. If spark check to see if the coil is working.
