i have a 1993 ford probe, i am having issues starting it,

What is your question?

it use to start fine, but then i had to pump the clutch a few times before it would start,so i replaced the clutch master cylinder and bleed it like crazy but now even pumping the clutch don't work, what could it be, i replaced the starter about 8 months ago.

My assumption (when you say that the car won't start/it's not turning over) is due to you referring to the starter. Based on this, the only reason why the car would start when you pump on the clutch pedal is due to a faulty starter safety switch. The way this safety switch functions is based on this: this switch will only allow the power signal to flow to the starter when you are stepping on the clutch pedal. This way, even if the car is in gear, it will be safe to start the car due to you stepping on the clutch pedal.

i have a 1993 ford probe gt with the mazda setup. The car stopped running but would turn over. I replaced the fuel pump and the fuel pressure is good and the injectors are getting power. I replaced the crankshaft position sensor and it started on the first try and stayed running for 3 or 4 minutes and stopped running again and it only turns over again
