Question 94 cherkkee wont stay running

i i have a 94 jeep cherokee and it starts fine but it will only run for about a minute and a half and it shuts off and then you have to let it sit for like 5-10 min and then it will start again.but if you dont let it sit it wont start just turn over and turn over any answers. i was running it all day tues and it was fine it just started happening yesterday i put a can of hear in it and it ran for about a half on hour but then it shut off again and wouldnt start at all.

i put a new fuel filter on it and it was running fine but i didnt drive it long enough to see if it dies but yerterday before i changed the filter (which was like 10 years old) it ran for a half an hour before it died then it didnt start for like 10 min then it died again about quarter of a mile down the road but started right back up but died again again a half mile down the roan and wouldnt start again.

in auto i changed the filter and to test the pump i put the fuel hose from the pump into a gallon jug and turned the key on and it had about the pressure of a slower bubbler(drinking fountain) and it would cut out and then go on again and cut out again but i didnt know if that had anything to do with the vaccume of the motor when everything is hooked up?
