Intermittent stuttering

My 1990 non turbo has had a few hiccups over the last few weeks. Occasionally after cruising it would stutter and stall when coming to a stop. Cranking the ignition would start it back up with another stalling episode shortly thereafter. Another crank and it would run fine until this happened again a few days or a week later.
A couple of nights ago it died as I pulled into my driveway. I crank it back up a parked it thinking it would be fine until the gremlin decided to come back again. The next morning it was caughing and weezing for a mile before I turned back and parked it again until I had some spare time.
This morning I started it up and checked for any obvious vacuum leaks. I couldn't find anything. I pulled the plugs one at a time at the rotor and spark seemed to be good. A few minutes into idle it began to run fine as usual, and good enough for my wife to take it to work.
Could it be the fuel filter? I had the tank replaced this year by an indie. Would he have not replaced a 300K mile fuel filter on his own when he was in there? There is also a new fuel pump. Thoughts? Thanks.
