Exclamation 2000 firebird v6 stalls out

I've had my car for three years and a little over 100,000 mi on it. I run it a little hard.

I experianced it stalling for the first time a little under a year ago and it didn't happen again for months.No tell tail no check engine light NOTHING! The only thing that pops up is a light saying I need gas and I don't. It's usually at a full tank.It doesn't loose horsepower so im thinking no on the fuel pump, changed the fuel filter gave a throttle body cleanse mass air flow sensor too and it still happens. It's been a year now and it still does it. Only difference is it used to not happen when car was at a full tank of gas now it doesn't matter. I could drive it for an hr at times and it won't stall. then again it coulg go in five min. 10 min,20min red light. or going 80 on a highway. the problem certianly doesn't discriminate. Has anyone had this problem and fixed it? Im desperate cause the mechanic can't figure it out. god bless em though cause at least he's not putting uneeded parts in it. I'll be on here from 8-5 mon thru fri as much as I can******ANSEWERS PLEASE******

I think it is your fuel pump. It might be going bad cuz I myself can think of any other reason not to think it's the pump. It probably not creating enough pressure to send gas up the lines. The only way you can test it is the moment it stalls, just turn the key and try to hear if the pump comes on.
