Ok, I was driving around in my car and everything was running fine. Stop at a gas station to check my tire pressure, get back in, car starts, idles rough, dies. I start the car again, it idles really rough at like 50 rpm for and actually would for quite a while (at least 30 seconds), if I hit the gas it dies.

So my friend and I are trying to diagnose the problem, make sure the MAF is plugged in, reset the ECU, nothing. Then when I'm trying to start it again, I notice something. My fuel pump isn't priming. Now right away this would make us think it was the fuel pump, except for the fact that it would stay running for quite a while. But after a few more tries, it will no longer run for more than a second or two, so we're 99% sure we're talkin fuel pump; Especially when you take into account that my car is famous for having a bad fuel pump, and I've yet to replace mine.

Any insight would be GREATLY appreciated.
