Where could be the problem with my Nissan Mistral?

I am desperately in need of help. I have a Nissan Mistral model 1994. It gives
me a hard start especially in the morning, but also while I park it for
a long time. When it starts the engine goes off after 2-4 minutes. When
I pump manually the lift pump, the engine remains on. I keep struggling with
this for a long period of time before it eventually starts running normally
. When it starts working normally it goes on for the whole day without
any trouble.
I have so far replaced the lift pump, fuel and oil filters, cleaned the nozzles
, replaced heater elements all in vain. The local mechanics cant identify
the problem.

Injector pump is loosing prime for some reason. The lines need to be tested for any leaks and the suction pressure for the pump needs to be checked.

Thanks Roy,
This was exactly the problem with the Mistral. The injector pump head was not functioning normally. I had to replace it.
