Automatic engine shutoff is a symptom for when you have a bad crank bearing and you are just about to be throwing shrapnel around the inside of your engine. Also, a symptom for when you squeaked the engine by melting a piston around the rings. If you have more than 3000 miles on the engine and it seemed to not be as responsive as normal, would also tend to corroborate either diagnosis.
