96 blazer weird fuel problem

well first off i'm new to the whole blazer deal i've been a jeep guy my whole life but i got a good deal on a blazer i've read all the threads concerning this issue, if the truck sits over night it won't start without starting fluid so i checked the fuel pressure it was 59-60 psi but after the pump shuts off it drops about 4 psi haynes says fuel pressure should be within 55 to 61 psi so its well within limits, let it sit overnight it has 0 psi in the morning so i changed out the fpr now if i crank it like 4 or 5 times it will start as it didn't before, then when it does start it runs out awesome i am really lost on this one any ideas would be appreciated i don't want to waste 250 and my time if the fuel pump isn't the culprit thank you
