Hi, I purchased this vehicle from an auction therefore have no knowledge of past performance. The problems is that it will not start or run with fuel system. It will run on starting fluid however. I have checked for spark, that is good. I have replaced the fuel filter, and I have approx 60lbs pressure at the rail, that stays for a couple of minutes after the key is off. I am assuming that this is the fuel pressure regulator, as everything I have read points to that.

Do you have any other suggestions that I might look at once the plenum is off?
Thanks,

Jerry

If you have pressure at the rail, I doubt the regulator is the problem. Sounds like you dont have injector pulse. Check ALL fuses with a test light, if I remember correctly there is an injector fuse in the panel. If it is good you most likely have a bad ignition module or computer. Have you scanned it to see if it has any codes in the computer?
