Wont Stay Running?

My car is having an issue where it will start up (sometimes) and when it starts it will run for a couple of seconds and then it will stumble very bad and stall out. What are some things that I should look into for fixing this problem? Does it sound like timing or fuel?

Go by Advance Auto or Autozone and borrow a fuel pressure gauge. See what the fuel pressure is when it dies out.
