I have a 91 chevy lumina z34 with 98000 miles and auto trans. I have replaced the fuel pump and filter, and I have checked for a ground by removing all fuses one by one. When I start my car it idles for about a second then it will either lope or it will kills. When it is put in drive or given gas it will die. Any ideas what this could be?

How long since a tune-up? What is the fuel pressure spec, use a gage. Any applicable trouble codes?

It has been about three months since a tune up, no trouble codes. I will have to get back to you on the gas pressure as I cannot seem to find my gauge.

Some of the national brand autostores used to loan out a fuel pressure gage.
