Had a similar problem with a mk3 GTI a few years back. 2.0 8v 2e engine used to cut out randomly but would start again about 1-2 hrs later. Changed ECU relay, coil, plugs, leads, dizzy cap, fuel pump and pump relay and it still did it. Ended up being the distributor. Replaced with a 3 terminal one out of a 1.8 8v polo. Never had the issue again.
