if it was your fuel pump, it would not be running. try giving it a tune up.
fuel filter
pcv valve
sparks plugs, wires, distr. cap, rotor button.
try cleaning out your throttle body. that plate inside gets crap clogged around it, and when its closed, it can't get enough air through to idle.

I don't use injector cleaner in my car, the stuff does more long term damage than good. Unless its the problem don't use anything. Try to get hooked up with somebody who has a fuel system flushing machine instead.
