hey, i just put a new fuel pump in my truck because the other one went out i have driven it at least 40 miles probably and the other day i drove it to town no problem got to where i was going went in came back out and it wouldnt start. It was just like the pump wasnt pumping again so i cycled the key a couple times and it started i figured maybe when we replaced the pump we messed the fuel guage up so i went and put gas in it it started fine then too and has but what could have caused this should i be concerned???its a 1996 chevy k1500 cheyenne

1) Check fuel pressure.
2) If no pressure check the fuel pump fuse, relay, and filter.

Locate the schrader valve located on the fuel rail, it looks like a metal valve stem to a wheel and a pressure guage, it canbe bought or borrowed @ any Auto parts store.
