So some background info would be helpful.
Any work done on the car before the issue started?
When did the issue start?
Did it happen out of the blue or ????

So go with the simplest things first then work your way up.
Check the fuel pump fuse, the fuel pump relay and the main DME relay.
If they are good then you need to check the fuel pressure at the fuel injector rail and the fuel delivery volume. But your going to need some special equipment for those tests.
Or have a reliable shop do it.

Check your crank position sensor.
