1998 Ford Escort runs normal about 20 miles,then loses speed and slows down to crawl. If I shut down a few minutes and start again,it runs normal a few miles and the same thing.

Radiator cooling fans not working? The ECM is protecting the engine by shutting it down.

Sounds like it since it appears you have a fuel delivery issue.

You mean PCM most states read the readiness monitors depending on the state on how many they allow not to be completed. The first one on the list that is hard to get run and pass is the EVAP Because this requires the car to be cold and fuel tank must between 15%-85% and both air temp and coolant temp with in 10 degrees of each other. Start car let idle for 5 -10 minutes Then drive car normally no hard accelerations or quick stops bring speed to 50-60 mph and coast down to 20-15 mph without brake pedal input repeat this twice.Then bring speed to 58-62 mph and set cruise control run for 12-16 miles exit freeway caught a red light or stop and idle 2 minutes shut car off rest for 5 minutes and repeat freeway drive. then redo morning cold start again . then have some one test the generic readiness monitors to what needs to run and attempt again. California before 2000 1 can be incomplete after 2000 all have to be completed which is hard some will not run for 800 miles.

Is the check engine light on while you're cranking the engine?

fuel pump i have a 1996 ford econoline and on hot days it will die and after it cools down it will run ur fuel pump is overheating i have not found a soulution to stop it from over heating

There are usually return springs but it could just be that your car coast a long time when in high gear before it starts to slow down. My Jeep is the same way, if I'm running at 55 I can coast for a few miles before I slow down very much.

If it runs good during all other conditions , or most, have it checked for plugged exhaust. (catalytic converter.)

It's possible (= probably not) that the catalytic convertor has failed and debris is randomly clogging the muffler.

The next time it occurs, leave it idling and listen at the tailpipe of the exhaust system.
If you hear a pronounced hiss instead of the throbbing of the engine, the exhaust system is at fault.
