I wouldn't run up the street without fuel filters.  If there is enough
trash to clog your filters then you don't want to let any of that
stuff into your carbs unless you absolutely have must.
You could also have a problematic fuel pump.  I think the Facet or
NAPA fuel pump is the modern replacement.  How old/what type is your
fuel pump?  Does it make any noise when you first turn on the key?
Replace the fuel filter(s).  They are cheap and should be replaced
periodically.  Also, if you suspect fuel delivery problems, there
might be a problem in the tank.
I suggest a clear plastic filter near the carb(s) so that you can see
fuel in it when it is working.  It may not appear "full" of fuel, but
that's OK, as long as there is some fuel in it.

Also, give us a full rundown of exactly how it behaves from the time
you start it to when it dies and won't start to when it will start
again.
It is starting to sound like fuel pump.

Coils usually go out and stay out, in my experience.
