Motor shuts down

I have done an EFI check and there is no error codes. Its a Gen2 3sgte It runs for about 1 -2 minutes and stops running, There is fuel pressure as it has a Sards with a gauge and it shows pressure. The car has been sitting in the shed for 24mths. It was fine before. I think the old fuel might of blocked the injectors, Why I think this is the problem is because its starts and then runs of the cold start injector. As it starts warming up the cold injector turn off and the motor stops. Does it work like this?

    Cold start injector runs until the ecu tells it to stop from the coolant temp, how long that is depends on temperature...

    Check everything before running it more and maybe doing internal damage... Time for a service; Swap fuel filter, check airflow meter setting, tps, timing, look for air leaks, oil/oil filter, new spark plugs, clean points and rotar in distro, inspect spark plug leads, dump fuel and out new fuel in ($200s)... If you have time take the injectors out and get them cleaned and flow tested ($100).

    Also when you have an engine sitting for a long time, there are start up things that need to be done, like a few drops of oil down the spark plug holes before starting, think there is something about priming the fuel .... I don't know all the ins and outs, just heard when you start an engine that's been sitting, there is more to be done than just turn the key....
