Very good video. I’m battling the start and die problem in my 85. Have pretty much done everything you’ve covered here. New pump engages and pressures to 39. New filter. Cleaned relay connection. Same problem. Starts and runs then dies. Dies faster if ya touch the throttle. Cornfussed!
Yes. Old fuel in the fuel rail. After a good flushing of the fuel rail and doing a much more intensive cleaning of the whole fuel system finally got it running properly. I couldn’t believe the nasty congealed crap that came out of the rail.
I've done pump and filter, fuel pressure is 90psi according to the tool i rented, starts and dies, checked for pulse and it has pulse, but no start, sat for 20yrs.... yikes, i also checked fuses, and fuel pressure regulator, spark plugs etc. Fires and die no matter what
So I had the same issue with my 85 the rubber fittings for the new pump were different went back they showed me a fuel pump for an 84 and it was an exact match
My 78 does the same thing. But runs till the carb runs out of gas I am thinking. Like you going to check all the filters. If it's the pump I'll put a electric pump on the side of the frame

Ever fix your issue?

I used to think I could fix anything.......but now that I watch your videos, maybe not lol!
Now I don't believe that.. once a fixer always a fixer.
But thank you for the kind words. You have blessed me today.
Will this work for a 1986 Corvette motor with tuned port injection 5.7 Liter Coupe 230 HP L-98
Thanks! RJF

ok, so if you don't get 12 volts to the unit, does that mean relay?
Give me a call I will help you troubleshoot 606-875-0125 Kevin
@@ktoutdoor ok, I will have the car in front of me around 4 today. If that is necessary.

PS great looking UA-cam channel you have.
I hear those vets are a bear to work on.
It depends on what breaks the fuel pump was a breeze don't ask me about replacing fuel injectors.. that was not fun.
