Exclamation Help! Fuel pump not pumping!

So i ran out of gas about a 6 months ago on 98 trans am, and after that my cars fuel pump decided that it would not work anymore, so it sat for a couple months due to financial reasons. recently i replaced the fuel pump for a racetronix and also i replaced the fuel filter. it worked good for a week and now back to the same. i turn the ignition on and i dont hear it turn on, it takes quite a few ignition turns for it to buzz, then it turns on. well it was doing that for weeks until now it dies on me while driving, and it takes me 10 minutes for the fuel pump to turn on!!! what could the problem be? it has newer fuel pump? maybe fuel pump relay? any input is appreciated. thanks!!
