Sounds like the fuel filter or fuel pump. Good luck.

Take a look at your Coil packs, and your spark plug wires. I had a car that had the same problem, when i changed i noticed that the spark plug wires had burnt through the insultor, and was grounding out against the block. This happened a few times in a short amount of time. Turned out that the coils packs were going out and sending out irregular spark voltages. The higher ones were causing the wire boots to wear out. I changed the packs and wires and the car car ran like a champ for many more years.
