Intermittent no start 200 1991

Greetings,having an issue with the wife's 240 not starting.This has happened several times.First time it happened it was damp out.I checked the cap and it had some moisture,changed cap and rotor it seemed fine.Then last Saturday(it was dry out) she was low on gas I thought she might have ran out.I brought some. Car would turn over but didn't want to catch even though it sputtered. I thought maybe the fuel pump relay so I jumped fuse 4 to fuse six,still didn't want to start. After trying to get it to fire on WD40,(sorry no start fluid available) it ran. Now today it did it again,I got it running and it ran down the road about a mile sputtered and stalled.Got it going aging after turning it over and it sputtering,ran a mile down the road and quit. At this point I had enough and we towed it home with the 940.Now the weather was nice and dry,i tried jumping the relay and nothing. Going to try her again tomorrow. Any ideas ? Also I changed the gas filter a few months ago.
