I own a chevy s-10 that starts on the 3rd try everytime and when it does start its a weak start. I've replaced everything from sensors to pumps and nothings helped. After the truck has been running for a while it starts fine but its that first morning start or trying to start it after a days work is when I have the trouble starting it. I depend on my truck very much for work and am running out of money for repairs. I;ve also heard that this is a common problem for s-10's and also the blazers. Any info will help. Thank you greatly.

Toss a fuel pressure gauge on it and see if it is holding pressure when you turn off the key. If not the pressure regulator may be bad. Also do you hear the pump come on if you just turn the key on? If not then the fuel pump relay circuit or relay itself may have a problem.
