Today when I went to leave for work my 94 metro didn't want to start.
After trying 3 or 4 times it started ran rough for 10 to 15 seconds and died.
I restarted it and it seamed ok until tried to leave for work it would stall out & had no power so I left it parked.
When I got home from work I tried it again after I got it started the idle was somewhat low for about 10 seconds then normal for 10 seconds it did this for a few minutes then it ran ok for 3 to 4 minuets so I was able to put the car back in my driveway

I checked the timing and looked for vacuum leaks I also looked at the fuel Injector and I couldn't tell if that was ok or not it looked kind of drippy to me.

I replaced the fuel tank, pump, strainer & filter about a month ago so I think the pump & filter should be good.

Does anyone know what the problem might be?

(1.0L, 5SPD)

You did not mention whether you checked spark or not. I would check the plugs and remove the distributor cap and inspect the rotor. While the cap is off, crank it over and see if it's turning.

Ok it's got spark the rotor turns when I crank it over.

I replaced the distributor cap, rotor, plugs & wires.

I checked the fuel pressure and I'm 7 to 10 psi with the engine running or not so
I think I will remove the tank and recheck.

No. First block off the return line with a pair of locking pliers and recheck. This may isolate a bad fuel pressure regulator. If pressure stays low, it may be a restriction in the feed line or filter, or a bad fuel pump.
