1992 civic vx w/ b18b1 stalls while driving need help

Just bought a new civic from a friend and it ran great a month or so ago. But recently it has been stalling while I'm driving and not restarting for a while. It usually cranks up fine at first and the idle rpms drop occasionally. The battery light comes on when it stalls but I've checked the alternator and its fine. I've changed out the coil, spark plugs, rotor button, dist cap, fuel filter. I also gave it a seafoam cleaning thru the vacuum lines. Any help would be great. Its a special car to me. Its a b18b1 1.8L dohc.

Spark, Air, Fuel...which one is it not getting enough of?
Sounds like the fuel pressure is low and the fuel pump and/or fuel pressure regulator could be the issue.
