Default Rough Starts

Greetings Cat lovers, My 01 XK8 with 67k mi starts rough, generally after making a few errand stops. I thought it may be the Throttle Body, but now leaning towards fuel pump. Upon initially turning over I hear a rattling or kind of thumping coming from the fuel tank area.
What say you?
Thank You,
Bill

You need to tale out the rear parcel shelf ..remove speaker blank and then cut to open up the hole for access ..7mm and long extension ..run the fuel down.
