you need to check fuel pressure before starting and while running, so you will need to find a pressure test guage and connect it to the schrader valve on the fuel rail. ...if that tests good, you may be having a problem with your Crankshaft position sensor, Throttle position sensor, or a few other things...
IAC, Camshaft sensor,...bad ground connection...
If no check engine light...probably Cranshaft sensor..
If you are handy, and have the tools, get a Service manual start with a fuel pressure check...
