This is a 1994 Chevy S10 Blazer V 6 4.3 four wheel drive with W in the Vin. Put a new fuel pump in about a year ago and it ran fine. Now it Quit running. So I thought it must be the fuel pump, installed a new pump and it ran for 5 days then quit again. Since then I have put 3 Pumps in. (Even changed Brands of fuel Pumps) Still no Fuel at the fuel Rail. I have power at the plug for about 2 seconds 12.85 volts. Ground is good from frame to body. Checked fuel relays they click when key is turned. Checked ignition module, check out good. Map sensor gets power and has resistance. It will fire with starting fluid. Help Please! Working out side In the snow is no fun.

What is fuel pressure? If tbi 9-11 psi. It may be a blockage in line like a fuel filter or blocked return line.
