Default Please HELP with stalling problem...

A week ago car hesitated a few times while driving and stalled twice at stop light. Both times only the battery light came on and no CEL. Took serveral cranks, but finally started fine...acted as though car was out of fuel. Thought I had water in tank but not the case. Today car stalled in traffic (of course) and it did not refire and I had to dissconnect the battery and let it the car go through its TBody thing then car started normally.
I resently changed the fuel filter and checked battery connections. I never saw the CEL come on either. I searched forum and found some help but never a post that had a resolution.

Car has 100k miles and has been chipped for 2 years now with no problems.
Before I take it to the dealership and get robbed, has anyone had this problem resently?

I have a 1.2 bar speedtuningusa soldered in chip...not flashed. Maybe a bad solder? I am not counting that out, but saw that people with no chip having same problem.
