NEED HELP

So I need reddits help. Car was struggling to get up some hills and then randomly car dies. My car has only done this one other time in a parking lot. Both times my car dies it has started right back up with no issue. What could the problem most likely be . Fuel delivery ? Crank shaft position sensor ? Throttle position sensor. IAC valve ? Vacuum leak ? Serpentine belt or misfire ? Idk I need help . I must mention I replaced the IAC and TPS a while ago and still had this weird issues. Please let me know something

My CPS did something similar on my 98 before it shit the bed. I had a long crank for a weeks, then one day i started it up and it died as i went to put in drive. Then was fine for a month. Did it again, where maybe 3 seconds after getting into D it died. A few weeks later i went to fill up at the gas station. All seemed fine. After she was full i had no start. I checked all the fuses and relay for fuel pump and starter, all good. Buddy helped me flat tow home, found out the CPS shit as did my PCM fuse. Hopefully that helps. Lol
