That might be good test to know it isn't getting fuel       during those situations.        Sometimes hard to know if fuel or electrical is problem.        I think my 93 sonoma was acting up, cutting out at times a few years ago,       recalling as you mentioned fuel pressure. Someone told me that fuel pumps go       out gradually, used to be easy to replace too. The in-tank variety can be       hard to get to. A van        might have a cover on the van floor to access the top of the tank, and even       allow you to remove the pump assembly from the top of tank--a ring that turns       unlocks some tabs and then pump assembly lifts out, that part fairly easy.        New pump fixed my        cutting out, cost about $70 online.        When stumped, I go to a repair shop and get estimate how much to diagnose       problem. They used to do that for around $100. Then fix it yourself from       their advice. They have better equipment and are used to solving mysteries.              --       For full context, visit https://www.motorsforum.com/chevy_trucks       fuel-pressure-issue-95-astro-please-help-35769-.htm              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
