Well I think I've found the culprit finally. It's looking like a faulty ignition key switch. After diagnosing everything related electrically to the fuel pump and relays; everything checking out okay, I decided to mess with the key turning it on and off for a bit.

To my surprise after several attempts the pump kicked on and the car started perfect and ran perfect! However, if you bumped the key from the position it was able to start from, the car would eventually lose fuel pressure and die.

The only thing I can think of it being is a loose wire/connection somewhere inside the steering column thats related with the ignition key switch. Has anyone else ever had this problem or atleast heard of it before? I've never had to take this area of the car apart before, and it would be great if I could get some advice and or some direction.
