99CLK320,
a bad MAS will not cause the car to shut off. It will throw a CEL light on your dash. Are you getting one? If not I'll bet the farm it is the crankshaft position sensor. If it only does it when the car is at full running temperature, I'm right. let it cool off and try it again.

YUP CPS (Crank Position Sensor) Save yourself several hundred dollars and buy one here and install yourself in 30 min! http://bit.ly/9KQz8r
