I tried to manually do the fuel shutoff solenoid and after it was disconnected i, well my dad , pulled the solenoid up and tried cranking it, and it fired up but he let it go and it'd die, if that matters

I've tried to start it with the fuel shutoff solenoid both plugged in and unplugged and when it was unplugged it wouldn't stay running

any fuel pressure #'s ? @ cranking speed .. have you tried to pinch return fuel line ?

Only do one thing at a time ... dont do 3 things and then report , i think your fuel pressure may be the issue here .. or lack of volume
