Default Fuel Pressure

Long time no talk. Well not holding fuel pressure. After letting the blazer sit for awhile i have to turn key on and off 2 to 3 times before it starts nicely. Thinking check/one way valve, my question is can you buy just the valve or do i need a whole new fuel pump?

It could be the fuel pressure regulator, or a small fuel leak.

when taking off the intake manifold do you have to take off the ac bracket and pulley in front of the radiator does that have to come out for when taking the intake manifold off. please help me I am lost. The job look easy but it is more messed up than before I did label everything I took off.

I believe 2 bolts and one nut in front, one bolt on the lower left, hard to see, and two more underneath. If you can find the pics you'll see what I mean.
I should also add that there are the four bolts holding the compressor to the support bracket that need to come out. I left my compressor hooked up to the A/C lines and sat it out of the way, then removed the bracket separately. Good luck
