Catera shuts off while driving

I have a 97' Catera and have been having some major issues. It shuts off while driving and then will not restart. Sometimes it restarts right away and other times takes a few hours before it will restart. Also experience issues when going to start car in the a.m., just won't start.
Any idea what's going on? Almost think fuel not running completely through or something. HELP!

First I would check the battery-If battery ok-Check fuel pressure-If iy is fuel pump going I have found you can actually hit the bottom the fuel tank and then they start-
