Have you done any other maintenance recently? When you start it and it runs for 3-5 seconds, how well does it run? Smooth? high or low RPM? Can you keep it running with accellerator pressed? Does it run smooth when you do this?

When you say you've already tried throttle body injectors//fuel filter etc... Does that mean you've replaced these items, or checked them?
