1999 Blazer Engine Problems Beileve Its The Fuel Filter Or Pump
I have a 1999 V.6 Vortec Engine I Had No Problems with It All On Friday Or Sautrday Morning After I Put Gas Into It And Drove To My Destination And Shut It Off It Will Not Stay On.... The Engine Cuts On For Maybe 2 Secs Then Cuts Right Back Off... I Don't Think Its My Fuel Pump Cause I Hear It Turning On When You Turn The Key... Please Help I'm In College. And Need This Car For School To Get Back And. Forth To School
Start with the basics: fuel,spark and air. To properly diagnose fuel problems you need to test the fuel pressure and do a leak down test. Have you checked the battery terminals or had the battery tested? Did it throw any codes? Also look for any vaccum leaks while you are at it.
Key on/Engine off.. THEN how long it stays above 50 psi. You can stop counting at 10 minutes.
Where did you fill it up? Describe the station and type of retail outlet.
Change your fuel filter first.
That's nice to know but doesnt tell us much. Like I said,

Well, that's not the worst place you could buy it but not the best either.
Like I said, change the fuel filter FIRST.
I test the old one for for blockage by draining the gas out of the engine side, then seeing if I can easily blow thru it from the tank side. Unscientific and yucky but tells you something, if your cheeks puff while doing that.
If you see anything nasty coming out, that's bad fuel.

I check the gas pressure with the key on and it went up to 55 then decreases all the way to 0 it stays at 55 for about 3 sec's then it goes down to 0 but I changed the fuel pressure regulator and that didn't work what else so I do? The fuel filter?
