Sound like perhaps there is a blockage with the vent Canister or possibly
some left over sealant getting in the way of where the line hooks up into
the tank.

Just my two cents.

A friend's TR3 had the same issues and he found the vent clogged with the
sloshing compound they use to coat the interior. Exactly 9.5 miles the
engine would die. Waited a few moments and it would start up again.
Obviously the vacuum would build up and by waiting it would slowly let air
back in. He ran a wire down the vent tube and unclogged it. Car runs great
now.
