Check to see if you can hear the fuel pump prime up when you turn the key, before you start it
It will be a one second buzzing sound coming from the right side by glove box.

I'd been wondering for years what was that noise.

I love this place.

I'm betting fuel issue too but I did have a 996 with a bad dme that had those exact symptoms.
