I had similiar problems, turned out to be my transfer pump.  Figured this out 
after I changed the fuel pump.  So I ended up changing both main and tranfer 
pump.  

The transfer pump is a lot cheaper, make sure it's not that before you buy a new
fuel pump.

Frannk, what's the "hall sender harness" ?

Hope that helps,

Kevin.

Some may not agree, but It may be a hall sender problem.  Mine did 
that two weeks ago, would idle great at startup (good sign of gas 
reaching the engine);  then fluctuate (RPM ranging from 0 to 3000 in 
seconds going up&down as it pleases, like its hunted!!

Check the hall sender harness & inside plug.  Make sure everything is 
snug fit inside.

Hope this helps.

BTW I am pretty novice to this stuff, but I'm just sharing what 
worked for me.  do not take apart your distributor, just check the 
plug for now.
