Could be a faulty Ignition Control Module. I had a similar problem with my '89. I replaced the fuel filter, the battery and had the fuel system cleaned out. None of that worked until I replaced the I.C.M.

does that mean that you pulled the pump and changed the tank screen/filter?

Did you ck the fuel pressure when its acting up? Sometimes fuel pumps work fine until they get hot.
