This sounds like an ignition module problem, you replaced the fuelpump thats good it takes that out of the picture because that would cause this also, now lets take a look at the control module these will heat up and go babd and loose spark and fuel sometimes but always spark,alot of auto parts stores can test these modules but if not i would replace it and go from there , good luck hope this helps.
