Sounds like the pump and wire going to it are fine if you can hear it prime. What exactly is the problem? Does the car start from cold?

The car will eventually start from cold but after turning her over with my foot flat on the accelerator about 9 times.  She will fire up and then immediately cut out.  As if fuel wasn't getting to where it should be.  Once the car has started it will start fine all day.  Its just when I leave her over  night. :angry:

Sounds like what  i had, i know it's stupid but put your battery on charge over night then start her up in the morning, see if that makes a difference!
