Well we replaced and bought brand new fuel pump starter battery and when I start my car it dies like 2 mins afterwards.I drove it down the street and it died on me again. Sometimes it doesnt want to even crank over. What kind of problem does this sound like?

Try cleaning the throttle plate on both sides with choke cleaner. It gets gunked up with oil and does this kind of thing as far as stalling. If it doesn't want to turn over have the starter checked for draw and make sure the battery cables are clean.

When a fuel pump goes out it can do so one of two ways either it can quit and stop working or it can fail intermittently causing the engine to stall or not start.
