When it died, I turned the key on and off several times in an effort to see if the fuel pump sounded right, then it started. It idled fine and responded well to flooring the throttle while parked. I drove it about a block back to the house at a little more than idle. I didn't have time to mess with it with everything that was going on that day, so we hopped in the silverado and left.
I know fuel pumps can be intermittant, but they're usually connected with an odd noise. Any thoughts what this might be? Intermittant fuel pressure regulator? Anything else?
TIA
