1988 Ford Tempo 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 105KM miles

Hesitation and stalling at stop happens after car warms up 15 minutes of driving only sometimes and sometimes driving on highway stumbling. I replaced the ignition module and thought problem was solved but this is happening again. Could this be my fuel pump.

Hey, after all those parts I replaced I put a another fuel pump in and it was not it. I came to the conclusion that the only thing left to do was erase the codes and drive the car again. After this I checked the codes and came up with only code 14. Code 14 means usually your ignition module which I already replaced or the distributor pickup. I replaced the distributor pickup and my car runs great.
