Hello it's JP again. I gave the Kia a tune up. Fuel filter,Plugs & wires,air filter and engine oil. It started on a dime. Ran smooth and everything. When I woke up this morning to goto work, it started in one shot, ran for about a minute and then it stalled. When I went to go and start it again, it wouldn't start. I then pump the gas pedal about 3-4 times and then it started. I'm not sure if it was a coincidence but it worked....4 hours later I go and try to start but it won't stay running.... Any ideas? Fuel pump relay maybe? Fuel pump? Is it the 15AMP relay located under the hood's fuse box?

you can try the relay (they're really cheap) and also you can check the ground wires at the fuel pump cover lid located under your rear seat and has a material pull back cover.
Also you should check to see if you have any trouble codes in the computer,this will help greatly in locating the problem if you have a code stored.
And by the way after woring for Honda for a very long time and now for Kia you wouldn't be "upgrading" very much if you compare the two nowadays!
