my 240 (year '82) will start, but quits running! 200 1982

I have a problem with my 1982 240 DL (automatic). I can start it, but then immediately it quits. I can repeat this over and over. Sometimes, when I gas it when starting, it will run, then die. I changed the fuel filter and checked for obvious vacuum leaks, etc. Some history on this car: It had sat for about three years and after some work, I got it running. It actually had been running for about 6 weeks when it died and I had to tow it. I would appreciate any suggestions, thoughts, etc. regarding my problem. I resist towing it to a shop, as it seems like it would be a simple thing to fix. Thanks, in advance, Maus
