Yesterday my wifes 2000 Blazer would not start i got in and turned the key on thinking it would be that security problem with the key again but i imediatly noticed that the fuel pump did not cycle on (did not hear it kick on) so i also tryed cranking it to see if there was any fuel PSI and there was some in the Rale but none came out when i had the shrader valve depressed wile cranking


Anyways we towed it to a repair shop where my friend works but i decided to crank the engine again after towing it there,

it started..................

Would this be a sign of a bad fuel pump or something eles

 

could be a bad pump.......sometimes you can get a few starts outta them......

dont forget to check the fuel filter also........

 

Yes. Fuel Pump. Same thing happened to me about 3 weeks ago. Wouldn't start and then after it got towed, it started there. The tow jostled the pump around which will normally get another start out of it. (That's why they tell you to hit the tank if you just need to start it to drive it to the shop.) I suggest changing it immediately before it dies on you while you're driving.
