It would crank over like mad but wouldnt start or stay running without dusting it with starting fluid and then it would run great for about 5vseconds then die out again. I believe I'm having a fuel problem. I changed out battery with a high cca rated battery and replaced the crank and camshaft sensors. I Al's put a new fuel pump and German fuel filter. Any ideas? By the way the connectors are online with napa I believe.
First, check your fuel pressure in the fuel rail - it if is not 55-60psi, you found your problem. IT is rare, but I remember a member having issues with the fuel pickup on the tank.
THis is the kit I bought, for under $40, it tests the Crossfire and my Ford Ranger - as easily as checking a tire pressure:

Beyond that, I'm thinking MAF or Throttle Body.
