I need help bad!
I replaced my fuel pump last Sunday with a new one from Auto Zone.
The truck has been driven 108 miles since then. All of a sudden yesterday it quit running on the way home from work. After towing it home, I checked to see if I was getting fuel to the throttle body, which I am. I can hear the fuel pump running. Although it doesn't seem to be "gushing" out of the fule line. It is more like a slightly turned on faucet just past the drip stage.
Could it be in the pump? The engine runs if gas is poured into the throttle body.
I have a 1997 5.7 liter, c/1500 pickup. I have not seen any kind of info on the throttle body I have. There are no injectors on top. Just a large butterfly inside.
Any help will be apreciated

Check and Replace the fuel pressure regulator.
