Twenty two year old... I would guess that the fuel pump needs replacing. Check the fuse and relay before dropping the tank.

Mine did that a year ago stopped finally died. Changed the mass air flow sensors and the part it bolts on to. It would die, start and die again. Replaced the fuel pump and a whole lot of parts to no avail.
