GIVE US SOME MORE DETAILED INFO ON ENGINE/ CARB, "START WITH" HOW LONG IT HAS BEEN WAITING TO BECOME A DONOR ORGAN. LAST KNOWN TIME THEY WERE RUNNING

CHECK FUEL PRESSURE JUST BEFORE THE FUEL LINE ENTERS THE CARB

EXPLAIN HOW YOU ARE "NOW" GETTING FUEL FROM THE TANK, THIS '96 DID HAVE AN "IN TANK" FUEL PUMP ORIGINALLY?

WHAT PUMP IS BEING USED NOW?

ADD ANYTHING ELSE YOU WANT TO
