740T Sputters, Stalls, no restart for 10 min 700 1989

I've got an '89 740T, and had an odd series of events take place today. I was driving on a straight road, doing about 40 MPH, and the engine sputtered a bit, I gave it more gas and got a few bursts of power. 30 Seconds later, the engine stalled out, and I couldn't get it to start again. (Cranked, but no start.) I was able to pull off the road, and I could not get it to start again. I was trying for about three minutes to start it, then I turned the key and didn't even get a crank. The voltage gauge was reading about 13.5 V. I was about to give up and went for the "What the hell, I'll try it one last time" And it started right up. I was able to get it home, and now I'm trying to figure out where to start. I am thinking it's either the fuel pump or the relay. Any advice/ideas? Thanks.
