it would start eventually

it fires once then nothing each time i
turn key.

Is the anti theft light flashing on the dash? with the key on
do you have enough gas? Silly I know.
agreed with changing the fuel filter 1st....then test fuel pressure, with key on, should be somewhere near 30-35psi . if you're not getting that PSI, then check relays and fuses for the fuel pump...if that all is good and still don't hear a slight whine/buzz as you turn the key to the on position, not all the way to start (it'll just be on 2-5sec).
then go after the fuel pump....BTW its in the tank
Might just need the IAC valve & MAF sensor cleaned, then look for vacuum leaks...but this is best done after it is running.
