Terrible  fuel consumption might mean he's got low voltage.   That would  
make
the mixture too rich - maybe too rich to restart unless made cool  again.

Perhaps an open circuit CHT sensor, which would have a similar  effect, or
even the connector for it (on left-hand cylinder tinware) not  connected
properly.  Could even be a combination of the  two.



I'd buy that (the CHT), except once the car is started again, it continues  
to run like normal, unless pulling up to a traffic signal, where it tries 
to  stall and run like crap until cleared. He did remove the 200 ohm resistor 
that  was in the CHT wire, and it did help start the car once (was 
installed to  ballast it).
The VR was just replaced a year and a half ago, with a new older style made 
 in Mexico Bosch unit. Voltage readings were good (14.1 to 14.5).
