Mine was doing that before a new fuel pump, fuel filter, and pump filter sock.

Not to say its the only possible explanation but it could be one of those three things

Yep Pump. It still pumping but can't keep up with the useage, enough to run the car at a little more than idle & thats it.

Could be the CAS. Does it cough and splutter when it loses power or is it still running smooth(ish)
