First thing (and cheapest) I'd check/replace is the fuel filter. I had a
similar experience with an 84 Nissan PU where the fuel filter was the
culprit.
Other possibilities could include:
* dirty/clogged fuel pickup in the tank
(this is also a good possibility - crud floating around in the tank
stays in suspension until you start up the engine, the crud slowly
collects on the fuel pickup screen until after around 100mi/2hrs the
fuel pickup is completely blocked off. After the engine dies and there
is no more suction through the fuel pickup, and the crud falls off and
starts floating around in the tank again.)
* bad fuel pump
* bad EFI computer
...
Good luck.
