While driving my 98 oldsmobile intrigue suddenly the engine talled/died, I could not control ... Car just died and won't stay running I can't hear fuel pump kick on!

fuel pump relay or the pump itself may already have carbon build ups, contacts inside may be compromised or intermittent. or might be wire connection is loose

You say nothing about checking for engine control system fault codes, do that. here are the instructions, at the link. FAQ How to read older GM codes for free

On the surface, it seems you have an issue with the TPS (throttle position sensor) which regulates idling speeds accordingly for when the engine is cold, warm, or if the AC is in operation. A quick do-it-yourself test (not very scientific but a good indicator of a bad alternator) is to start the car and after it warms up, turn on all accessories (headlights, RW defroster, etc). If the car does not decrease in RPM's or if there's no dropoff in the brightness of the headlights, the alternator is fine. You can also get a free electrical test at most chain autoparts stores (Autozone etc) to rule out an alternator problem.
Most cars that have stalling problems when the car is warm can trace those problems back to the TPS.

Check engine codes.
If it comes up as a Crankshaft sensor... Replace it.
These are the exact symptoms

try fuel filter new plugs plug wires or u may have water in your gas

You don't clean them, you get a new one. Usually if it's the MAF, it'll start and die, start and die. If your's is stalling, it'll be the idle air control valve, or the fuel filter, or the idle control system, or a vacuum leak at the intake or vacuum hoses. Good luck.

A very common for these problems is a leaking fuel pressure regulator. This leaks gas and causes extended crank times, stalling, and check engine light.

Crankshaft position sensor problems causing stall/non-start are common in Intrigues 98-02, but the sensor is rarely malfunctioning - usually just a flake of metal attached to the magnetic sensing portion causing the error. Save money - inspect/clean/replace the sensor prior to buying new.
