Fuel Pump issues anyone ?

For the last month my car has been intermitently cutting out whilst driving and sometimes i can keep it going if i put it in nuetral and pump the gas to keep it from dying, I took the car to an automotive electrician who was unable to replicate the problem for over a week, but suspects it's the fuel pump. When it dies it can sometimes take upto 2 minutes of cranking to get it started again.
No fault codes have come up on the computer. Anyone else have this problem ?

I think my fuel pump is going too but Im a noob so I dont know much. Can a bad fuel pump cause misfiring or would the car just stall?
