This has gone on for two months, change fuel filter, no diff...replaced the fuel pump relay (in fuse box) started rite up and ran ok for about 50 miles then no start again. Will run if pour bit of gas in throttle body then coughs and dies. Autotranny and everything else works ok!! what gives? thx

 

Right off the top my guess is fuel pump.

 

Could , heck of a job changing tho if not the prob. The relay makes it work for a few miles...strange, eh? Could it be pressure regulator?

 

Check fuel pressure when it won't start, also it is quite possible fuel pump intermittent or restriction. Since you've replace the filter, could be bad gas. Coincidental as the fuel pump may be just on the verge of supplying enough pressure at times.

 

Thx will check this out, gas is new, filled up as soon as we put fuel pump relay in and it started
