Unhappy 00 Contour STALLS AND STARTS RIGHT BACK UP

Hello .. I have a '00 Contour .. 71k miles. This problem happened to me twice a year ago and not since .. and has happened to me three times in two weeks: From a stopped position (at a light or end of a road) i pull out and start accelerating and the car just craps out/stalls out. There is no temp. rise, to shaking or shuddering, nothing odd by smell or feel ... it just stalls out. I am able to restart the car virtually immediately and keep going with no problem. I took the car to have a diagnostic done and they said nothing came back. He also checked my oil pressure and said everything was good, oil clean etc. Does anyone have ANY idea what this could be?? Im so scared to be driving around, afraid it wont re-start and i'll be stranded somewhere! HELP ! Thank you !

2000's are pretty notorious for bad fuel pumps.
