when pumping the gas it makes sounds like a motorcycle then stalls out slowly.

It sounds like your cat. convertor is plugged up. Have somebody stand back at the tailpipe, and listen as you rev. the engine a little.

I know all the other answers refer you to fuel related problems and you should certainly eliminate fuel first but a failing coil can cause similar symptoms.
When a coil starts to fail, it will sometimes allow a motor to run for a short time before dying - this can make you think it's a fuel problem when it's actually a lack of spark. If you have a spare coil - swap it over and see what happens - you might be surprised.

Sounds like a bad fuel pump problem or fuel line filters are plugged up, there is one in gas tank and one on the engine block.

plugged fuel filter most likely
spray starting fluid when stall starts to find out if lack of fuel is the problem
