Had similar problem on a di a long time ago in my campervan after changing the fuel filter start up from cold ok but drive over 15 miles or so stop at a shop and it would be a pig to start it turned out to be filter not all the way up into the filter head remover the unit and pushed the head down onto the filter to get a good seal refitted to van no more problems this van did not have a lift pump on it .lf you have not had the filter off or work done on the van you may have a small air leak on the system.
After this at work one of the vans had the same problem but doing this did not cure it we ended up replacing all the pipe work to and from the tank and fitting a fuel filter unit off a non Ford truck to sort it out .
