Default hoping this cures the issue

91 5/spd ex 271k
recently been having an intermitten starting issue when engine is warm
replaced the plugs, cap, rotor; it had been a while, had good spark now
had no fuel at fuel rail, had been sitting for a while
oops; put fuel in, now she fired right up, amazing, air+fuel+spark
test drove to get warm and same issue, fires stalls
now many yrs ago i purchased a fuel filter, for the 60k service, but for whatever reason never istalled it just sat there on the shelf all these yrs and miles
today was the day, installed it, changed the oil, took another test drive, seems like it ran a little smoother than she had in the recent past
hoping the filter was the culprit, only time will tell
we really love this car
