I had a similar problem when I had my 98v6 auto. I dropped the tank to replace the fuel pump and found that the screws backed out of the pump housing ( inside of the sump)causing the pump to lose prime. I left the old pump in tighten the two screws and that fixed my problem. Injector o-ring could be leaking and check your gas cap.
