Fubar 81 06-04-2002, 10:12 PM I have a 98 gmc 3/4 ton with the 5.7 vortec engine. My problem is that it won't start . I was driving down the road and the engine just shut off. It will crank over but not start. I can hear the fuel pump run when the key is turned on but it sounds different than it usually does. I tried squirting starting fluid in the throttle body and it starts then. Any help would greatly be appreciated! hy_desert_4wheeler 06-05-2002, 07:16 AM put fuel in the tank.. tail_lite 06-09-2002, 08:59 PM Originally posted by hy_desert_4wheeler put fuel in the tank.. put in a coupla' gallons and if it won't start, the odds are that its the fuel pump. Mine went that way.....:eek: Erich In AZ 06-10-2002, 12:18 PM I'd start by checking my fuel filter and if that's not clogged, then figure on it being the pump. Good luck Rip DeLips 06-12-2002, 04:25 PM I'm not sure where you're pump is mounted, but here's an alternative if it's mounted inside the tank. Holley makes several in-line fuel pumps. I paid about $100 for mine and it came with a seperate fuel regulator. It will feed through the old unit and trail replacement will be mucho easier. Just a thought. (plus it comes with a 5HP gain from the sticker). :flipoff2: | |
