Legacy Starting Problem

[Boostn20]

Hello

My mate has a starting issue with his legacy. It starts the first time but after driving it for a short while the engine just stops. If we tried too start it straight away it wont start but if left alone for awhile it will fire up again and repeat the process.

Has anyone got any ideas what it could be or what too check?

Cheers.

my mate also just bought a 1995 gt manual wagon 130k and it sortoff does the same thing, if you turn the key on you have to wait about 20 seconds before you actually try wind it over or it simply will not fire at all, and if you stuff it up ie: you jump in and try crank it over without waiting for 20 seconds, then its a real prick and usually have to leave it for an hour or so before it will start. Other than that its a mint car, runs real nice and dont think its had a hard life at all, checked error codes and it didnt throw anything. We thought it was the turbo timer was faulty so we disconected it and tried a brand new one and it still did it, also thought maybe the fuel pump wasnt coming on with the key but it checked out ok........?????????????????
