   this sounds exactly like when i ran out of fuel!
   
   when was it last serviced? could be a mucky fuel filter causing a blockage
   
   also spark plugs/coilpack

   mine cut out right outside my mechanic's. fuel line clip had popped off! may want to check its secure but if it starts, doubt it's that. couldnt hurt to check
