Starting Problems

I've taken the car to different mechanics. Either they can't find the problem or they say I need a new fuel pump (a new one was installed in 2009). Another mechanic said fuel pump, electrical, and ignition are fine. Each time a friend cleans the carbuerator the car starts and runs for 3 days, but then starting problems return. Any suggestions for what might be causing the problem?
