have ingaged pump seperately,made no different. I assumed you power the fuel pump from the battery and it continues to start and die, if this the case-check if the injectors are pulsing-

Starts and then stalls sounds more like a fuel problem-

Clean out the idle air control valve and EGR and PCV valves and see what happens-let me know
