At first when driven for more than a few miles and proceed to stop and turn off engine. I would have to wait between 30 mins to an hour before she would start. Then soon it became even if I down shifted it would start to stutter and possibly quit. Before I could bleed some air out of the valve on the throttle body. And then she would start back up. Two days ago it finally quit. Replaced fuel pump, fuel filter, checked relay. I know it has fire because it will very momentarily start with starting fluid but soon die

Check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light.
