a while back i pulled my fuel pump relay to check a few things.. its the one on the far right of the fuse box.. like a pillock i bunged it back in the wrong holes.. for quite some time i just had that initial half hearted fire followed by nothing.. the fire is from the little squirt of fuel thats delivered by the extra cold start jet.. just enough fuel to make your engine cough once then no more each time u try and crank it.. the jet still works for some time even with no fuel pump.. its quite repeatable and went on for ages till i figured out what i had done and put the pump relay back in its right place.. he he
it sounds just like the symptoms u are having.. anyway its what your car does with no fuel pump working.. the residual pressure in the system feeds the extra jet but isnt enough to open the main injectors..
