okay, i had another posting.. went to the shop and they said to bring
it in for a diagnostic.  

the thing is that it only has starting problems some of the time...
some days it starts fine.. others i have to crank it.. the engine
turns and doesn’t turn over for a good 6 min.. sometimes it will die
right after and i repeat.. hit the gas a little and it stays.. what
could it be?

Sounds like the main relay. Goto www.tegger.com to identify your relay and
diagnose the problem.
They can often be repaired by some resoldering.

That famous main relay
I carry a rebuilt one on my glove compartment.

As 'remco' says, probably the main relay (see his link). It is rare for fuel
pumps to become intermittent - they normally work until they fail
completely. I suppose they could work intermittently, but I've never seen
it.
