Default problem with starting car

i think this might be the main relay, but im not sure

sometimes, but not all the time, after my car is warmed up and i turn it off to go somewhere and come back in less than 10 minutes (like running an errand) my car would crank, start up to about 1500 rpms, then slowly loose rpms and die. then i would have to go to the acc and on position to have the fuel pump pump some gas to the engine, then start it.

sometimes this takes a few minutes to about 15 minutes where i would have to just sit in the car and wait. this happened in the summer and i thought, oh it will go away in the winter, but its in the 50's nowadays and the same thing happens


thanks

is your car carburated??? because thats the only way your going to give it gas by pumping the pedal in the acc position... also its prolly your fuel pump itself that is going out. try getting your electrical checked at autozone or something and then they should be able to determine the problem.
