this sounds like a CKP sensor thing. Exactly when does the engine die out, right above 1/4 on the thermostat? If the CKP has a bad sensor, the engine rpm will drop ~500rpm causing a stall while it switches then goes back. Watch the engine temp when it gets close to 1/4, and watch for the blip in rpms = CKP sensor.

CKP would be a good direction, it just doesn't explain the speedo.
