sounds like air when my lift pump started acting up I had similar issues.at times when I let it sit for days during our heavy snows it took alot to start and would stall when I got running and warmed up was fine.new lift pump from napa cured it all till next time then its a FASS.

thanks alot for the info i will check the lift pump. i know the fuel pressure is good when warm, it is about 15psi at idle and 10psi at 3000rpm. so im sure it is something simple
