ok so I changed the coolant, cleaned the maf and went around the bay and tightened everything I could see. it doesn't try to die while warming up anymore but it still takes 2 or three times to start up and I have to put a little gas in it to get it to stay on. do you till think it could be the coolant sensor?

If you need to give it gas to make it start when it's cold then I would say the cold start isn't wired to the ecu from the S13 dash plug.
