Default '99 Stalling

I have a '99 3500 savana.
I have changed the PMD twice and now(@a year later)
The motor stalls intermittently!
Am told that it's IP any other suggestions?

Had a code 2 weeks ago 0251- cleared and hasn't come back
Replaced fuel filter and lift pump-AGAIN
Stalling has stopped but when on highway and maintain 55-60 for 5-10 miles starts to stumble!
It's a van and any motor work is a BITCH!

Run Great all weekend until tonight!
Stalled and kept stalling!
Took me 20 min to cover 0.25 miles!
Have a full tanK of fuel!
Do you think blowing air back through the lines into the tank will help until I can lower fuel level to replace the sock?

Got the last 2 PMD from SS Diesel
And walt from ss said that the chances of a 3rd failure was next to impossible!?

well if you still have it on the intake the chances are good for it to fail just to much heat under the hood for PMD need to move to front bumper
