5KS starts, runs, dies???

["Tom Serrago" <tom1007@netzero.com>]

My 85 5KS Avant just started to act strange today. This AM it started fine
as always, 2 miles from my house she just dies. I coast over on to the
shoulder, try to restart, just cranks. I check under the hood, everything
looks fine, nothing out of the ordinary. After maybe 5 minutes I crank her
again, starts right up. I finish up my errands and head back to the house
again, no more problems. Later that afternoon I head out to the auto parts
store no more than a few miles down the road. Again no problem starting, I
get to the store to pick up a few things, spend no more than 10 minutes in
the store, car will not start. It turns over fine but nothing, Check under
the hood again, this time I checked the fuel line, pump OK  checked for
spark, none, nothing from the coil. Called AAA for tow back to house. By the
time tow arrived, (20 min tops) car was able to start again. I had it towed
home anyway, with my luck she would stall in the middle of a busy
intersection.
Any ideas or BTDT's, I'm confused.

TIA
