Engine tries to stall 5-8 seconds after starting, and then randumly dies doesnt matter whether hot or cold will run for a couple days and not stall then just start stalling out. Then after stalling out a few times will run fine. Have changed fuel filters and checked fuel presure.

Check your idle air control valve, and ignition spark. Check spark several different times, hot, cold.
