When I try to start the car, it will either die or run w/ no throttle response. than it will die again. now I can't get it to run at all. It tries to turn over but it won't start

Check the fuel pressure if its within specs if okay, Clean out the idle air control valve and EGR valve to include testing the throttle position and manifold absolute pressure sensors.
