3.8 supercharged, 120000 miles

checked ignition control module- good
replaced fuel pump and fuel filter
checked fuel pump relay-good
fuel pressure decreases after start up


when car is started, will idle for about 2 seconds, then begin to sputter, then die all together

when engine is off, key turned to ON fuel pressure then comes back and holds steady.

Just a note about my experience.

Some ignition modules have separate start and run circuits which will make it start then shut off when the key is released to "run" postion. In my experience with this, the module tested ok even though it was bad.
