My car started to bog down every time I accelerated
from a stoped position. Then it felt as I was running
out of fuel, and all of sudden the car shut down.
i tried to start it, but it would not fire up at all.
it just cranks and cranks. I changed the fuel filter,
and thats not the problem. Could it be the fuel pump? Are there more fuel filters that I missed?
please help.
PS. 5.0 V-8 AUTOMATIC 1991 CAMARO RS

There shouldnt be any other fuel filters unless someone installed them. First step would be to check your fuel pressure. The manufacture recommended pressure is between 9 and 13 psi but it can run as low as 8. If its lower then that its your fuel pump. Youll need a fuel pressure gauge. They cost around 30-40 bucks but I think you can get a loaner from an auto parts store. Check that and if its good repost here with the psi and we'll work from there. Good luck
