Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.

Based on your description, it could be a few things. A weak fuel pump could cause it, or more often, a bad crankshaft position sensor. Take a look through this link to see if it mirrors what happens.

Here are general directions for replacement of a bad sensor:

Here is a link that shows in general how to check fuel pressure:

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,
Joe
