Stalling problem with 850

My 850 has developed a problem in which it appears to run out of fuel and stalls out within the first mile or so of driving (when cold), within seconds, it "catches" and runs fine for the rest of the day. The next day we have to repeat the process.

Can anyone suggest a solution or point me in the right direction?

1996 850 R, manual trans, non-turbo, 181,000 miles

Jumper the socket positions on the fuel pump relay (103) associated with pins 15 and 87 and see how it behaves. If it runs OK you need to either repair or replace the relay.
