NO carb on this engine it's fuel injected fuel pump is BAD or the fuel pump relay...If you want to check the theory of the relay, unplug it and bridge 30 and 87 on the fuse box. If the pump is running, you might just have a bad relay. FUEL TANKS Probably full of Crude too.

Just replaced a leaky gas tank, put in new gas lines and fuel pump. As I was driving home from the shop, the truck was acting like it was starved for gas-engine vibrating, no power? 3 Answers

Took forever to get up to highway speed, but once at speed and foot off gas, smoothed right out. Could new fuel pump be bad? Does new gas line need to be bled like brake line?

I installed a fuel pump on my 2002 GMC Sonome engine 4 cyl. It started righd not startet up. But, after driven 2 miles, stalled out and died. Since then I could start only after taking out pump out of tank and reinstalled. Oil pressure is more than 40 PSI. I can not find any voltage from terminal.. I put a hotwire (jumper) from 87 terminal to 30 Terminal in fuel pump relay terminal, still no juice. I put a wire from batter to straight to pump . The new pump made noise . Still could not start. In this morning I put a jumper from 87 terminal to pump. I managed the engine running. I could start without jumper about 5 times. While the engine running, I decided to take my truck to road test. Whiel the engine running, I was gathering some tools and equipment for in case of broke down, the engine shut off. Why does my truck do this? I need help, please. 3 Answers
