reviving an old thread, plugs have been changed and still losing fuel pressure, I pump the gas pedal 5 times and itll start up after 2 seconds. any ideas?? anything besides the fuel pump to change thats maybe cheaper??

i had a wierd intermitten starting problem a few months ago. it would start when it felt like it and i just didnt run right. we had it looked at and someone suggested the fuel pump or a relay. needless to say it wasent a relay. i ended up replacing the fuel pump and i havent had a problem since. knock on wood

Chris, it sounds like your fuel pump is fine but the check valve is not working properly. Unfortunately the check valve is part of the fuel pump and you will need to replace the fuel pump to resolve the problem.

About six months ago I had that same problem you ware having. Installing a new fuel pump fixed it.
