i have a 94 camaro z28, 5.7L 6-speed, and for the past 2 weeks my car has been running funny. It runs good for the first 10 minutes or so but after a short while my rpms go down to about 800rpm and my oil pressure drops to about 20(from 35-40). Once this happens it starts to stall. Theres two times when it stalls, when im stopped or slowing down my car will just completely shut off. And the other time i could be on the highway and when i go to hit the gas nothing happens and soon after it shuts down. I can start the car right back up no problem. I have replaced my fuel filter(which was in pretty bad shape). Ive been told to replace my fuel pump, and have also been told to replace my ignition module. Any ideas?

A clogged fuel filter will cause the fuel pump to eventually fail. If your fuel filter was really bad, it is very possible the fuel pump is in the same condition.
