Fix was the new fuel pump assembly.. which includes the filter..

This is my guess.... I put premium but I've been trying to save few bucks and put some cheap premium gas (10% EtOH) from Raceway etc..

On my way back from Florida few weeks ago, my car died bucked on the interstate. At first I thought the tank design.. but now I see that it was in fact the fuel pump. I've also heard that the 10% EtOH is causing some issues for cars as its cleaning the gas station sludge in their tank and filling up your car tank and causing blockage and restricting the fuel pumps flow and some say could damage the pump (not 100% on this). I know state of AL is going to start inspecting gas stations about this stuff..

Anyhow, car seems to be doing well.. I'm going to wait til tomorrow morning to see how it start.. I've always had cold start issue so that's my final testing
