There is the fuel screen in the tank that could be clogged. If it has been setting for any time, algae will build up! Do the fuel filters first. They are the easiest.

Hey Gang,
Started off to work this morning in my 1982 turbo coupe and it stumbled getting out of the drive, went a few yards and then died. It started up just fine first thing, but driving off it acted like it was "loading up". It will crank, but not run for any length of time.
A couple of weeks ago I noticed a slight stumble on the freeway at 75, but it cleared up.
I am betting on a change of fuel filters, but I am open to other causes. I'll change out the filters this afternoon in the warm Texas sun.
