The first thing I would look at is the fuel pump relay. Jumper the pins so that the fuel pump is on all the time and see if the problem is still there. You'll have to look at the ETM to figure out which two pins to jumper.

One common problem with an older fuel pump relay is that the solder joints inside of it crack. You can also proactively open up the relay and resolder the joints.
