   Fuel pressure is lower on a fuel injection car than with carburetor I read   
   once.  With my 93 Sonoma, past problems were most often with sensors in the   
   fuel injection and smog system.  I have in the past replaced the fuel pump in   
   the tank (did so by    
   raising truck bed to gain access), but first better to invest in a code   
   checker, auto suppliers have them for around $25.  Sensors regulate fuel, it   
   could be throttle position sensor, or temperature sensor (when cold it tells   
   computer to use more fuel    
   for same rpm).  Under the dash is a socket, you plug in the checker, it begins   
   flashing a code with a light in the instrument area.  There are 6 to 8   
   sensors.  Look up in a repair manual of that car, and it will tell you how it   
   is done and show the code    
   meanings for you to localize what the problem is before spending too much.
