My astro wont start. Checked fuel pressure 61 with key on Holds 59-60 for 5 min plus. New wires, plugs, rotor and cap. Checked ignition module, pick up coil and coil, all are good. Also checked coolant temp sensor- good. Van will run with a shot of carb cleaner down the tubing. Pulled upper intake and checked for wash out, none noted. Keyed on pump - no leaks found. Pulled poppets from holes and cranked engine over, no fuel coming from poppets. Spider is only 2 years old. Van has 200K on it.
Seen alot of info saying people replacing fuel pressure regulator. I dont see where you can purchase it alone. Is there a way to check the spider to see if it is good? How about checking the regulator?

take fuel filter line off coming from tank side and see if gas is pumping up to filter first.

I put in a new filter also. I get 60 PSI constantly at the shrader on the fuel line located at the rear of the intake. It has run several times and several miles, in between the changing of the pump, then plugs, wires, rotor, cap and now the no start.

can you check your spark and see if it;s blue or yellow? if yellow no good you need blue.

it did seem a bit yellow to me, but what would be causing it if the coil, pick up coil passed the Ohms testing and ignition module passed testing at auto parts store?

I only have 6 volts to the wiring for the spider when the key is on or starting. Can someone tell me where my issue may be?

Well on the hunch of the salesman at AZ. I installed an ignition module. I turned it over and the injectors squirted. Put everything back together and it is still running.
I had the Module checked and they test ran it 5-6 times and it tested good every time.
