Engine shut off while idleing, cranks and runs fine, then starts to run like it running out of gas, then shuts off. have changed fuel filter and pump. Have changed throttle position sensor and idle air control valve. Did a complete tune up, plugs wire cap and roto.

If the problem only happens at idle, check the idle air system. The throttle-body may need cleaning and check the iac valve. Any applicable trouble codes? Did you use a gage and check fuel pressure, part of a tune-up.
