it got dark on me didnt have time to get the multimeter out will break it out tomorrow
btw it did the same thing...cranked right up but died out because it wasnt warm due to bad idle....it did this two more times before it ran and just died out and yeah the final time as if it abruptly lost fuel, trying to start from this point yielded the same results as before
the car was low on oil theres no fail safe is there cutting out out power to the pump?

I do not believe that there is a fail-safe based on the oil level.
The pick up screen in the tank could be getting clogged up, so you might check that while you're checking the internal wiring to the pump.
I would recommend running new wires to your fuel pump, and definately make sure that you have a good ground for your fuel pump. There are some pretty good write-ups about how to do it; however, I'm fairly sure it's pretty straight forward as you're just replacing old wire with new, and securing a better ground.
