When I try to start eng after sitting for a while it wont start unless I shoot starting fluid to it, but after that it will start and runs great as long as I dont let it set long, the fuel pressure with key on is 40, running 40, changed crank sensor, cap and rotor any help would be helpful
I have a second bravada with a diffent problem, starts great but after it gets hot it has no power, check vacum for stop up cat pulls20, changet fuel reg, mass sensor, plugs and wires

Hi MIKE DEWEESE, Welcome to 2carpros and TY for the donation

Sir, your fuel pressure is too low should be 60-66psi-check if the fuel pressure regulator or the nut kit is leaking, also if the fuel filter is clogged-up if all okay the fuel pump is weak
