[W126 Coupe] Engine problem

[Shayegan, Richard]

While I don't know why it started in 10 minutes, sounds like a fuel delivery issue to me. (clogged fuel line, clogged fuel filter, clogged something or other).

Yesterday, while driving approx. 30 ml the engine suddenly stottered and then keep going. About half a mile further it did again and the engine stopped.
I tried to start again with no success.
Waited 10 minutes and the motor started and I drove home without any problem.
I will take the car to my mechanic on monday, but who has experience this before and what could be the problem? My 1987 560 SEC has 142,000 ml and had a major repair at 120,000ml (timing chain and valve job).
