The fuel pump is 4 years old it is a replacement I bought from Chrysler new 
 (it said V6 fuel pump on the box) but there is a lot of pressure when I 
take off  the gas cap. That's one of the things I tried when it died.  I'm not 
sure  about the canister I don't how to check or test it. The gas tank has 
lots o  pressure. My coil has a dent from when I put the engine in so I 
thought of that  also. I think I'll pick one up on the way home today, if I 
make 
it home.  LOL

P.S it had over 1/2 tank gas

Is your  vapor canister working?

How about the vent in your tank?

Fuel  level?

Fuel pump age?

Wondering if the pump is failing or if the  fuel tank is not venting 
properly.

A quick test would be to cycle the  key a few times until the pump won't 
prime any more and try a restart.   That will tell you that it is a fuel flow 
issue from an overheating pump or a  vapor lock issue.

Another thought would be that the coil is getting  warm and failing.

I fought a similar problem in my old Daytona.   Had to go through every 
connector under the hood and pull the power module to  fix the grounds tucked 
away in there.  Swapped the MAP, TPS, HEP,  etc.

Had a fuel pump fail in that car before that though, that was  pretty 
obvious since the pump wouldn't prime with the key in the run position  and I 
had 
no codes.

Had another car have a similar issue to yours, but  it only did it once 
when the rubber feed line broke as I pulled into the  parking lot at work.  
That could have been much more exciting since I had  a huge puddle of gas 
building under the front of the car very  quickly.
