Check the fuel filter. A running engine will require more fuel than the filter can supply if it is plugged. After you shut the engine down, the filter will refill and supply enough fuel for a short run or a restart. Then when you hit the pedal, you suck the system dry again. If that doesn't do any good, check the fuel pump.
