[TR] TR250 problem

List, 



Friend of mine reports the following with his TR250. Any thoughts from the List? 



TIA,

"Possible ideas on another 250 issue I’m having as of yesterday. Ran some errands yesterday. After my first stop (20 minutes running, 20 minutes stopped) it took me three or four tries to get the car restarted. Once started I went home to pick a few more things up and when I went back out to go I had the same issue with starting (This car NEVER starts hard). Once started I went on about my business, but after about a ½ mile the engine began to sputter and then died. I coasted into a parking lot and stopped. I could immediately restart the car without issue but after 2 seconds it would sputter and die. 



I left the car and returned about 5 hours later to give it another try. The car started right up and I drove it back home. Fuel is clean and appears untainted. The tank is a 1/3 full and I haven’t had issue until now. 



Went to school this morning and picked up lunch this afternoon without issue. Stopped at a buddy’s house to eat and the car sputtered and died in his driveway. Same as yesterday. It starts immediately but dies after a second or two. It does this 5 or 6 times and then won’t start at all.
