For those of you that follow this, I found the solution to my problem posted on the 14th of March. My wagon started to sputter after being out most of the day. I was on the right track with my gut reaction of a fuel issue.
Started with low cost, replaced the fuel filter, got the car running again. Stopped part way home, and on restart had the problem back again. Crawled under the car with my suspicion being fuel pump. I smacked it a couple of times with a crescent wrench, and was on my way home under power again. The last 4 digits on the Bosch replacement were different, (got it through a local repair/parts shop) I gave them yr/model info. What a difference! Evidently the old pump hadn't been up to snuff the whole time.

Thanks to everyone with theiir suggestions. Hippie
