Default HELP ME......MY CAR KEEPS STALLING!

hello there,
Lately my car has been stalling on me, what will happen is I will be idle then my car will start to spudder and die on me. when it does this the battery light, oil light and check engine lights comes on, when I go to restart it, it jus cranks and nothing happens after leaving it for a few minutes Il crank it and it starts upnp with no check engine light or any other light, I check the temp gauge and every seems to be running according to specs. Im really stumped, I have linked it that it happen right after getting gas.......could this be related??
thankyou

I was about to say have your alternator checked, but you said this only happens after you get gas?

Ok well try changing your fuel filter. That very well might be your problem. Its only about $12 to at your local parts store. If that thing is clogged you will have all sorts of problems. It will cause your air to fuel ratio to be off (causing stalling, sputtering..etc).
