I bought this cavalier a week ago and after a week I was driving and went to push the gas and it choked out on me nd slowly died id restart it and it'd do the same thing. It started fine but would die immediately. I replaced the fuel pump, the fuel regulator, the fuel pump relay and the fuel filter. And now it will start but would sound really rough and act like its misfiring got any ideas?

Check for spark when this occurs, generally when an engine runs OK cold but dies hot, it is the ignition module. You can have them tested at most autoparts stores for free.
