Do you have a check engine light? Fuel pump could be failing-check/monitor fuel pressure if its within specs-also clean out the idle air control valve
yes the engine light has been checked lights on The vehicle starts for 15 - 20 sec and it cuts off once the engine is hot it's running well but the engine light is still on clean throttle body clean air-flow

Check and test the coolant temperature sensor-this is like your choke on a carbuertor to enrich the fuel during initial start ups-

This sure sounds like the fuel pump is failing here is a guide to check the pressure and another guide to show you what you are in for when changing the pump out.
