Replace fuel pump, relay, checked fuel pressure, made sure fuel pump was working. It did start, drove it up the drive and back, next morning it won't start.

Hi,

Do me a favor. See if it will start with starting fluid. If it does and then stalls, we know its fuel related. I realize you replaced the fuel pump, but it could be related to the injectors.

If there is no change whatsoever, confirm there is spark to the plugs.

Here is a link that shows how to check:

Try this so we can narrow things down and let me know what you find.

Take care,

Let me know.
