You can start the car but it won't run. It spits and sputters for just a minute then shuts off. Right before it completely died, while driving you could give it gas and sometimes it just wouldn't accelerate then it would pick up gas and go but was running rough.

You need to use a fuel pressure gauge and see if the pressure is maintaining at spec.

The spec is 41-47 psi
