Fuel pressure is too low.

Could be a weak pump, a leaking pressure regulator, leaking injectors, leaking pulsator.

Try cycling the key on and off 4 or 5 times before starting when cold.

If this helps, first replace the fuel filter. If not, check all the fuel lines for leaks, chack the tank for leaks, ect. Charles
