Chevrolet Malibu Fuel pump Problem
Cranks over but won't start. Not getting gas threw the fuel real. Changed fuel pump and filter. Will start with a
little startting fluid but will quit as soon as it runs out of startting fluid. Thanks

IF you have no fuel at the fuel rail, either you have a plugged fuel filter or the pump isn't working. Check to make sure the fuel pump is getting power and running. Also, see if there is fuel pressure before the filter.
