2004 Kia Rio Automatic 80,000 miles

Having trouble starting. Pumping the gas and stepping on the gas seems to help but less and less. Upon further investigation, it starts right up when car is cold but after traveling just a short distance and trying to start again is when it has the most trouble.

Check and test the coolant temperature sensor and fuel pressure
