Engine stalling at idle and highway speeds 850

I have a 93 850, AT.

It has always had a weird burp when it idles (once in a while) where it feels like it's about to stall, but doesn't. It has, however, stalled 3 times (prior to this issue) in the time I've owned it (over 30K miles).

Then last week, on Interstate 5, it completely died while I was going 55.

Then about 3 days later, it died while at a 4 way stop in a neighborhood. Both times it started up eventually.

So I asked around, and decided to replace the (original) fuel pump. replaced the fuel pump. Ran fine.

Went on 100+ mile trip (for work) and was fine.

Today while return from work (at a little shopping) it crapped out again.

I'm guessing relay or vacuum leak maybe?

It didn't throw any codes.
