Default Fuel Issue?

2004 90k miles. Just recently replaced the crankshaft and cam sensors. Replaced all spark plugs and one coil that was causing a misfire, valve covers and gaskets, added a plenum spacer and throttle body spacer. Recently when starting my car it takes longer to turn over. When the car has been driven around town however, it won’t want to start. The dash lights flicker on and off and it acts like it wants to turn over but then dies. Any tips or advice is appreciated.

I could be a fuel pump, and maybe trying to start the car is killing the battery. But I would go to an autozone and test your battery, alternator, and starter. Just to eliminate those from possibly being the issue.
