sometimes the pickup does not start, other times it starts really good. I replaced the fuel pump twice and the strainer also. When it does not start, there is no fuel going into the trottle body. I also replaced the fuel filter. the engine turns over really good. Do the injectors get plugged up periodically or could it be the fuel injector pressure regulator? I also checked the fuel pump fuse,and put in a fuel pump relay. help!

Let me ask you -Do you hear the fuel pump relay come on for a few secs. If so crank engine and listen to the injectors if its pulsing meaning opening and closing
