4.3 2002 Silverado running, died, won't start
Howdy, I'm a newbie and couldn't find this in the search bar, so here goes:
After filling the tank and driving about an hour on the highway, 2002 4.3 Silverado lost power, died and would crank good but wouldn't start. Towed it home (where it's quiet enough to hear the fuel pump). Installed a new fuel filter (old one made noise when shaken) and still no start. Got 55+ psi fuel pressure. Pouring a little gas in the throttle body WILL make it start until that fuel is used up. Good spark, plugs, cap, rotor and wires. Engine analyzer didn't show any codes. 100,000+ miles, ran great until this happened. Any ideas?????
