Your car is "running out of gas", not in the gas tank but in the carb or
injection system.  The reason it is running out of gas is usually a cheap
fix; replace the fuel filter.  
   If that doesn't do the trick then look to fuel pump or a blockage in
the fuel line or in the float bowl but 90% of the time its the filter.
