Default engine stalled

My 95 stalled and died,engine was fully warmed up came to stop sign went to go and she stumbled a bit then it just died luckly i was on my block and rolled it in the drive way. Tried started it she just turn over but would not start. Let it sit for about 2 hours and it started right up so I pulled it in the garage and havnt torched it.I thinking it might be the gas filter what does the forum think

I thinking it might be the gas filter what does the forum think.
Put a gauge on the Schraeder valve, pulg the vac line to the FPR, startup and pop the throttle.

If pressure blips, replace filter.
If pressure is too low, think fuel pump.
If pressure leaks down fast find the leak.

Thank you that is very helpful. I was going to change the filter and hope for the best. I've had the car 8yrs now and never did anything but oil changes shame on me. thanks again
