Default Possible fuel pump?

I have a 98 Honda Civic LX......So today i was driving and the car did something its never done before. I was sitting at a red light that is on a hill and it just shut off, it cranked right back up. I drove a bit to pull in a parking spot and it died again right before the spot. When i came back out from the eye doctor the car had an issue starting once i got it going again it seemed to only start acting like it was going to die if i slowed down. I made it a bit further down the road about 12 min later it died again and couldn't get it turn over even though it was acting like it wanted too. Haven't had this car maybe 2 months and still have not found the problem, one week it will crank up fine the next week it will start acting up again. I've had the dist. cap and rotor button replaced, ignition coil, ignition module, fuel injectors all replaced, the starter and battery checked out, all new spark plugs. Any insight would be appreciated.

You may just have a sporadic low idle problem. Try cleaning the IACV. Any CEL codes?

No cel codes. Had the fuel pump replaced today. It cuts on and the car will run for a few then cut off on its own. You can hear a misfire which just recently started after the dying on the road thing happened.

Would the fuel filter cause misfire and run for about a minute or two then shut off? Its never done this before until recently?
