Possibility I -
As the car coasts down, the KE ECU commands the Electro-Hydraulic Actuator (EHA) in the Fuel Distributor (FD) to move to a fuel shut-off condition. If the ECU does not recognize that the engine speed has dropped below ~1200 RPM the fuel flow will not be restored. The fault may be internal in the ECU (temperature?). The fault may be mechanical, and related to deceleration G-forces slightly shifting the position of wires, or changing the continuity of contacts in wire connectors.
Possibility II -
Also related to decel G-forces, the wiring and/or connectors for the fuel pump relay may be losing continuity, or the fuel pump relay itself may have a cracked solder joint inside.

The time it takes to start again is typically around 1 to 2 minutes (which everyone behind me appreciates at an intersection) I usually have better success if I work the throttle a bit. OK for Stretch, I will check out starteinfo.com again. The speedometer works fine, no glitches nice and smooth. I did get some good Info from Nick on this site, he gave me this;

Small changes in temperature during the 1-2 min. interval may be enough to restore continuity.
