Question Starts, runs a bit, stops and wont restart

Have a 1999 s70 that my kids drive (safety and they love it) but recently has become unpredictable. Stopped running while my daughter drove it the other day so put some dry gas in it. Got it started and got part way home before it stopped. Got it started and got it home to the garage to stay worm and dry out overnite. Daughter took it to school and died 1/2 mile from house. Couldnt restart and left for an hr. Came back got it home and changed the Fuel Filter. Started it up, ran , took a ride all is good. My wife took it for an errand and stopped 1/2 mile from house. I waited an hr and got it started and back to the garage. A mechanic came to tow it to his place (as wouldnt start) and there ran it for 2 days with no problems....no error codes came up. Brought it home, son drove it 2 days and moving it in driveway it quit again and wont start......any ideas to help?
