88 K1500 wont start

[quote:2fc0e48b4b="diehard40"]I have a 1988 K1500, 350 with automatic trans, the truck has around 265,000 miles on it.

It quit on me the other day while driving it.
sounded like a fuel pump (as i have replaced the fuel pump a couple of times)

The truck did this a few years ago as well and i ended up changing the ignition coil to fix that.

this time i have changed the fuel pump, fuel filter, ignition coil, fuel pump relay, and checked fuel pump fuse.

What could i be missing?
the truck turns over just sounds like it isn't getting any gas.
I did pull the injectors the other day and thy had fuel in them. could it be the inj filters?
or the pressure regulator?

if you put a little gas in the carb it sound as if it is catching, but not enough there to keep it going.[/quote:2fc0e48b4b]


yano i have had the same problem with my 89 silverado 1500..it has about the same amount of miles as yours and the exact same symptoms...in my reserch i have come across a part called a EGR valve. apparently if this valve is stuck opn it causes a massive air leak in turn causing it not to start...its worth a shot

thanks
Is there a way to check and see if the EGR valve is faulty?
