Your starting problem sounds indicative of an insufficient fuel supply issue. This could result from a bad fuel pressure regulator or fuel pump. Also, you could have a vacuum leak occurring in the vacuum hose that is attached to the regulator.
For your reference, the fuel pressure regulator is ref #8 in the diagram below:
