hard starting

when I start my car cold sometimes it will run for a few sec then shut off, if I start it again it will start right up. usually it only does this after it sat overnight. when I start it warm I have to crank it a long time to get it started but if it sits about 5-6 hours It will usually start right up. does anyone know what would cause this? my car is an 87 trans am 305 4bbl

Re: hard starting

it sound like fuel, check to see that you are getting enuf fuel, if not start with the basics, fuel filter, but it sounds like a fuel pump, if you replace the pump, be SHURE to replace the fuel filter at the same time, other wise you take a chance of the pump going out again.
