Do you have two fuel tanks?
If so does it do it on the other tank?
Could be one of about four things.
1. Fuel pump
2. PIP sensor
3. Ignition coil
4. PCM
You need to check to see if what codes you have stored in the PCM memory (CM).
The codes may tell you what is wrong.
So you need to check for fuel pressure and spark when it dies after checking the codes.

Well the black ICM very seldom goes bad not sure why you would change that. If you installed a gray ICM or a non Motorcraft ICM then put the black ICM back in that you took out.
Changing the plugs, plug wires, Distributor Cap and Rotor are OK if bad but would not help with your problem.
Other than that what I posted above in post #2 still applies.
