Hi and welcome to the forum

Weak full Pump maybe. I think that I would pay someone to check the fuel pressure.

Hi quel2sweet,

I agree with Basementgeek.

Try this,
Turn the key on, then off about three times before trying to start it.
On american vehicles, the fuel pump comes on for about 2 seconds each time the key switches from off to on. Each time it pumps more pressure if the pressure limit is not met. Then when you turn the switch over to start, normal full pressure should be available at the injectors.

This won't eliminate a weak pump problem, but might make it obvious that it is the problem.

Hope this helps and welcome to the forum form me also.

Best regards,
Mack1

try this squeeze the fuel line at the regulator after it starts if the idle goes up the regulator is good if it does not then change the regulator. if the problem still goes on and on then have the fuel pump preasure check also make sure your plugs are not leaking not with your hand but with a teaster good luck
