Re: Help.. Bravada is hesitating

There's a black cap on the fuel line at the drivers side rear of the intake manifold. Take the cap off to access the Schrader valve then connect a fuel pressure testing device and look for between 50 to 55 lbs. pressure....anything less is likely to be a worn out fuel pump or clogged fuel filter. If you run these out of fuel the pump will wear itself out quick as the fuel lubricates the pump.
After testing the pump by turning the ignition key on, it'll stop itself after a coupla seconds THEN the fuel pressure should hold steady for a coupla minutes although a good system will hold that pressure for 15-20 minutes.
