I have a 2000 chevy malibu and it starts right up and will run if i leave it sit..when i drive though it wiil go for a minute then seems like its not getting gas and will eventually stall.Starts right back up but will do the same thing every couple minutes??? I changed fuel filter and put a oxygen sensor but still does it.Was thinking it might be fuel pump or another sensor??? dont wanna keep putting parts on that dont fix? CAN ANY1 HELP OR HAVE ANY IDEAS???

Are you getting any dash light (check engine, service engine soon, etc)? It could be ignition related, as well.

I would check the temperature sensor with an ohm meter. If the computer thinks the engine is hot it will run to lean to operate when it is cold.
