Howdy guys. My fuel pum was really loud whining, has been since ive owned it, 3 months. Never take it on the HWY. But made a 25 mile road trip it ran fine. Reached my destination. It set for 4 hrs. Started to return and started it up ran for 10 - 15 seconds and died. Just happened to have a fuel filter replaced it started and ran good for about 1/2 mile and started cutting out and died. Replaced fuel pump. Ran good it set for 1/2 hr. Started and got a lil heavy on takeoff and cut out just the same but didn't die. Easy normal driving its ok so far. What could I have tor replace next.

We don't just throw parts at the problem. We test things. Start with a fuel pressure test and find out once and for all if you have a pressure problem or not. Rig up the pressure gauge so the car can be driven with it attached to see what the pressure does when the problem occurs.

When a fuel pump goes out it can do so one of two ways either it can quit and stop working or it can fail intermittently causing the engine to stall or not start.
