My car is acting funny, i need help

every time i try to start the engine, it would crank. it wont start. then when i just hold it there for awhile, it would start a little and i have to give it some gas for it to actually start and engine start to run. its been doing this alot and only happend recently. probably 2 weeks ago it started doing this. theres a new alternator too that was installed. i dont know whats wrong with it. please help.

when i was doing my swap i had this problem over and over. was getting real pissed off and then i remembered i hadnt put the fuel pump in. so did it. and whala it was fixed. might check to make sure your getting fuel to those injectors. or maybe check the filter.
