Default '98 Concorde won't start / dies while driving

My 1999 Intrepid (2.7L) would stall when I got down to half a tank. I tried
the relays, also. Didn't fix it. Dealer couldn't figure anything out. Local
shop checked everything topside, then went to the tank. The fuel module
(pump, filter, etc.) would not hold pressure. They replaced the module,
haven't had a problem since. This may or may not be your problem.
