Exclamation Engine hesitation, stalling.

I have a 2000 Mustang, 3.8L, Automatic, Stock no upgrades or mods. While driving the car after the first 15 minutes it will start stalling at any RPM doesn't matter, and at variable speeds (35moh-70mph). It will do this to the point it will not accelerate and will slow down to a stop and sometimes kill the engine. If I pull over turn the car off and Immediately turn the car back on I can hammer the gas and off I go for about another 5 minutes. PARTS CHANGED ALREADY: Fuel Filter, MAF sensor, TPS Sensor, Air Filter, Spark Plug, Oil, o2 Sensors. I checked theres no vacuum leaks my intake system is clean and clear of debris. And I took apart the Idle Air Control valve and clean it as well (didnt adjust it or anything) My gas hand doesn't work, and my low fuel light stays on but highly doubt the fuel pump is the problem. Theres no check engine lights or codes, hok the OBD 2 scanner or whatever to it and the PCM is reading the sensors fine. Haven't checked the fuel injectors or to see if the sspark plugs were cheap and went bad again. If anyone has had this issue and can point me the right direction I would appreciate it, this problem has me raging at my car! The mechanics are as confused as I am why shutting the car off and turning it on would cause it to run fine for a minute and baffled why there wouldnt be a code showing this issue.
