Default 99 Tahoe

I have a 99 Tahoe that made a pop and then stalled out on the interstate so I’ve changed out the coil ignition control module timing chain and distributor cap and it started up ran for a few minutes and then died like it had no gas even though there was half a tank in it and the fuel gauge read empty so when I try the fuel pressure it goes up to 60 when you turn the key on but just drops back down to 0 after a couple seconds would this be the fuel pump?

Almost a certain possibility, to be sure.

Welcome to the forum.

You should check the voltage to the fuel pump to see if it's getting voltage when it's not providing pressure.

Might also be the fuel pressure regulator gone bad. And welcome to Chevrolet Forum, Yamni333.
