1998 Mitsubishi Sport Cranks but starts sometimes (149k Miles)

I have a 98 mitsubishi montero sport v6 3.0.

Early morning car will start a drive for a little bit, then itll completely lose power to the accelerator and die. Itll start back up and then die soon after and then itll just crank and crank.

I had a check engine code showing Fuel Injector Pressure Regulator (Replaced it and didnt work).

I sprayed starting fluid on filter and it started up hesitant and died again. Tried a few minutes later and it started fine, then died after 30 seconds.

Very strange problem, I drove it for about 45 minutes the other day, died at stops a few times and then died when driving once.

I notice when it died itll sputter out when stopping or just completely lose power to the accelerator as if it was never on.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
