Change out your fuel pump relay. It is locatedunder the hood near the ac relay etc.

Back probe the +12V feed to the pump and see if that is what is dropping out or if it is the pump stopping on its own. That will give you direction on which way to go (defective pump or power supply).

Did you replace the fuel filter when you replaced the pump?

Oh and my fuel pump relay is located in the glove box, next to the horn relay.
