99 3.1 hard start problem and fuel pump noise

hey all, first post. I have a question about a hard start in my 99 lumina. this car has been doing this for 1.5-2 years. When the air temperature is above 40 degrees it will start to catch then stall immediatley. it always starts on the second or at worst third try. after it starts it runs just fine and gets great gas mileage to boot.

secondary question. I just started getting a noise from what sounds like the fuel pump. it makes 5 ticking noises when you turn the key on. I'm wondering if this is the pump itself starting to go?
