Default thanks for the welcome

it fires a little but wont run, it sounds like it wants to start really bad and comes close but wont start. so far ive eventually gotten it to start on cold mornings/ days after trying to to start it for a few minutes it will finally fire up. like i said brand new delphi fuel pump and brand new starter from rock auto....?
