can you jumper the relay or find the red wire by the battery that is nit connected it will have a green connector jump it to positive and see if pump comes on

If you replaced the fuel pump then there is a possibility that during the job then some debris from the tank and/or filter got loose somewhere into the fuel system and is in your lines. It could even be a very tiny speck of gasket material, old or new.

by the sounds of it the altanator is putting out enough voltage to keep the car running I my self don't think that it's the alt but the battery, if you don't know the age than it's not a bad idea to replace the battery. if the problem is still there than I would test the alt, should be putting out 14.6 volt at all times. but replace the battery first.
Testimonial: "Replaced the battery and seems to be working great now ! Thanks !"

What you should do is check for spark when the vehicle stalls.If you have no spark then you probably have a bad ignition module.The other thing is You didn`t mention if the check engine light is coming on.If it is then have the codes read.Even if it is not you should still check the codes.Sometimes the computer will have a code and the light will not come on.This could give you a clue as to what could be causing the engine to stall.You might also want to check your fuel pressure just to make sure it is good.The pressure should be 52 - 59 psi.Hope this helps.Good luck.
SOURCE: 2001 Pontiac Montana - what is a misfire #5?
Without your actual trouble code, I am assuming that you are have a misfire on cylinder # 5. The computer cannot really tell what is causing the misfire only that cyl 5 is not putting out full power. If it misfires when cold then smooths out as it warms up, I would say it is probably an injector that is sticky, as it warms up it starts working properly.
Testimonial: "Thank you for your suggestion. I will have that checked out. I will also ask my mechanic what the actual trouble code says."
