sounds like a fuel pump. have the pressure checked to verify before throwing part at it.

pumping the accelarator pedal does nothing to help it start

So a fuel pump would act like that? Not work durning cranking, but once running it kicks in? Have had a few pumps fail and they were totally failed. I should be able to hear pump with key on correct? Thanks for help. And pedal will do something once it fires correct?

the pump may run for 2 seconds with key on.

pedal work with it running, obviously.

pumps can be intermittent. thats why you need to confrm first with an actual test

Ok thanks. Ya I guess that's what I meant once it fired I really had to pump it to keep it running for prob 30 to 40 sec until it finally runs normal. Will let you know outcome. Thanks for help

Sorry I never posted what the fix was. After I was sure it was getting gas, I changed my thought process. Symptoms were now acting like a ignition control module. That did the trick. Easiest fix I have had in a while.
