The fuel rail will hold the fuel pressure if all is right, it does not take too much fuel to be pumped to reach the operating pressure as gasoline is not air and is negligibly compressible. But there are check valves and pressure valves in the fuel pump and filter. If these are not working the fuel pressure leaks down and the injectors need the pressure to work.
I never wait for the pressure to build up, I just turn the key straight to the starter position and have no problem at all.
Now Valky listed problems he had which if I remember were similar and solved it with a new fuel pump and filter. But I shall check for his post and add it here when I find it.
Here it is.
