What are the symptoms of a blocked car fuel filter?

I have a 1999 206 Gti. Recently its been rumbling then cutting out, mainly when at idle but also sometimes when I'm going at slow speeds. It sort of loses revs, rumbles then cuts off. Someone said it could be the fuel pump and someone else said it
The rumble leads me to tell you to check the transmission fluid if it's an automatic transmission.
