Answer
Do you just lose your engine or do your headlights and all get lost? I would start by checking your connections at the batteries for tight. You should have a small wire coming off your battery that is the hot wire to your engine ecm. check that wire all the way to the engine. It sounds to me like you have some corrosion somewhere or rubbing something or sometimes they use weather pack connectors and those will lose contact overtime.
