Check the fuel pressure if you haven't already, could be a weak pump. I would also keep the Seafoam and Chemtool out of it, it does not need those additives to run well.
Just use good gas.
Good luck with it.

I would assume your fuel pump is on its way out, my truck did that for almost 2 years, i would have to cycle the key numerous times before it would start some days,
