Is the motor running hot? what year is your car? what motor does it have? if its overheating it could be boiling the fuel and vapor locking that's all i can think with such lil info good luck

Testimonial: "its a 1992 chevy siverado with a 4.3 liter v.6 that has been coverted from fuel injected to a 4 barrel quadrajet carb. has a inline 12 volt fuel pump up by the carb that I went ahead and replaced even tho the old one sounded like it was working fine. just bought it, ran fine for test drive and for thirty min after. got low on fuel so I put 40 bucks in then got bout 500 ft from gas station and died. wouldn't start for like thirty min. then it fired up. made it 5 to ten miles then same thing. replaced filters and electric pump. blew out line all the way to gas tank from behind the pump, ran fine for a while then same thing? trash in tank? not getting vented properly? ran fine till it got low on gas then put gas in it. gas shouldn't be bad, got it at shell"

SOURCE: 1997 Neon dies, starts after electric fuel pump relay swapped

Hello, I would assume this is your fuel pump inside your tank. I would first however do some basics like a general tuneup. For starters I would replace your spark plugs and wires, rotary cap and button and check your fuses. Run some injector cleaner through your system. You know quick simple cheap things before you get to the fuel pump inside the gas tank which can be kinda expensive. The warm up then dies can be caused by, "blownout or fouled," spark plugs. I hope this gives you a general direction in which to go. A sidenote is that coil packs do not normally run an igntion code and I for one do not like them becuase they are expensive.

1987 mercrusier 180hp wont stay running unless i pump the gas

Could be a small amount of rust got into fuel filter from sitting empty, try changing fuel filter before worrying about the fuel pump.Filters could be partly plugged and its always smart to start with the cheaper fixes first.

Just dies and wont restart

sound like you need to purge the air out of the system if it's fuel injected there should be a looks like an air valve on the fuel line at the rack
just use a flat screw driver to depress and let the air out but watch out if you are doing this while trying to start the truck fuel could go everywhere
be carefull
