Ive changed fuel pump, filter, strainer, ignition coil, rotor, rotor cap and spark plugs. It will die when driving after time, and wont start up again for about 4-10 minutes, once it starts it runs fine until the next shut off. Except that I hear small backfiring noises also. Idle seems a bit unsteady.

Did you try the pick up? Has the check engine light come on? You have replaced just about everything, so we need to look at other things.

No I dont think the check engine light comes on. So I finally got around to ordering and installing the distributor pick up and the pick yup is fixed I wish I tried that earlier.
