I had a similar problem with a '77 Toyota Celica that had been off the
road for a while...turned out the gas tank had rusted and the fine
rust was in the gasoline. It would drive until enough rust covered the
fuel inlet screen in the tank to starve the engine. Once shut off the
rust would fall back off and "un-clog" the inlet and it would start
again. Replaced the gas tank and in tank fuelpump/filter screen. My
little sister drove it for 6 years after that with-out any problems.
