I feel for you. As I understand it, you crank the engine for 5 seconds then it starts? If that is the case. Hold on, someone who knows what the problem may be will respond.

Hello. It sounds like a fuel pressure issue. Perhaps your fuel pump isn't priming when you turn the key ahead. It could also be a weakening fuel pump.
