My vehicle won't start. I've noticed lack of power, then, after it warmed up, I stepped on the gas and it shut off. Now, it won't start they say the fuel pump is bad. I think I need to replace it.

Hello,

Have you checked to see if you are getting proper amount of fuel pressure?
You might want to test the pump before replacing it.
The fuel pump should produce 58-64 PSI of pressure.

Here is an article of how to test fuel pressure:

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you.
