I HAVE A 1996 CHEVY Z71 AND ITS GOT FIRE I HAVE CHECKED CAP, ROTOR AND PLUGS. I HAVE EVEN HELD ONE OF THE WIRES WITH PLUG AND THERE IS FIRE TRUST ME. I HAVE REPLACED THE FUEL FILTER. WHEN I RELEASE THE PRESURE FROM THE FUEL PERGE A LITTLE AIR AND FUEL COMES OUT BUT NOT MUCH. BEFORE REPLACING THE FUEL PUMP. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRICIATED.

THANKS,

Check fuel pressure and compression? What were symtoms before it died? Did it die going down the road? Intermittent starting problems before it died?
Other items to consider could be a TPS (throttle Position Sensor) Crank or cam sensor may also be suspect. Need a bit more info.
