Sounds like a fuel-supply problem but if you can determine the fuel pump works, try replacing the Crankshaft Position Sensor. About $130 at a chain parts store. I recently went through the same symptoms with my '98 900T when both the CPS and DI Cassette died at 162k. Simple enough to replace where the car sits. One bolt just behind the turbo's exhaust-outlet pipe, one electric plug up top. But you'll have to get a 27.5 Torx (star but hex may work too) bit for your quarter-inch drive socket. Oddball size. Don't even attempt without. Can't be done. This will save your sanity. Best!
