I have a 1998 GMC Jimmy/Envoy V6 4 door. Everything electronic. I have had the fuel pump replaced. My problem is that I can't get it started. It tries to turn over and does get spark and is getting gas. Is it a sensor unit in the motor? Problems with rotor? Plugged fuel line filter? It has spark. It did this many times before but eventually it did start. But now it won't turn motor over, just keeps trying to start.
