Remove and clean battery terminals and also check connections to starter making sure they are nice and tight.

Start checking & cleaning electrical connections, plugins, especially the plug-in at the fuel pump, they get corroded,

After getting some "bad cheap fuel" a few weeks back in my 2001 chev s10, with a 4.3 v6, now I have a long cranking before it starts. The crank sensor was replaced and the crank sensor relearn was done. It still throws a code of a misfire, sometimes a code of multiple misfires. it runs fine one it starts, but at highway speeds it will throw the code on the dash, yet still run fine. I dont know if the spider is clogged or the fuel pump strainers,[2] are clogged. I have fuel pressure and it maintains it, on the guage. It almost sounds like the timing is off a bit. 4 Answers

long cranking before starting, poor fuel mileage, 160k miles. tuned up at 146k. The engine always started on the first crank. No it cranks for 5-10 seconds before it slowly starts.

But the real question is, I have 12v at the relay and only 8 volts at the connector for the fuel pump. Any ideas on what could be wrong? I changed the fuel filter also. 2 Answers

I have 90 Chevy s10,4.3L, I am having fuel problems, it will start up and run but I have to continually pump the gas pedal, if I try to hold the gas down the engine boggs down and dies, 4 Answers

If I pump the pedal the truck will stay running and even drive (unless is try going up a hill) then it just slows down , it doesn't idle without fuel pedal pumping either
