3.8L stumbling

Hello,

A friend of mine has a '99 V6 Camaro with 98000 miles. Lately it has been stumbling when he gets on the gas. I have personally not driven it but he revved it up and it just starts cutting out. He has recently relaced the fuel filter and he had the plugs changed a couple of months ago. I told him it might be the fuel pump but wasn't sure. What else could it be.

Thanks alot.

I had a 96 3.8 that did the same, changed plugs, wires, and o2 sensors and that fixed it.
