    Could be any number of things,literally.

    Do you notice an odd smell(strange question,I know) when/around the time the vehicle does this?

    You could have a bit of water in your fuel tank,antifreeze seeping into a cylinder via a bad head gasket,need a tune up, bad sensor,grounding ignition wire...list is long.
