94 Lumina fuel problem

November last year i was driveing my lumina down to columbus and the car started acting funny and refused to go over 30 mph and if you gave it too much throttle it would just die, Once the car cooled down it would run normal but soon as it heated up it wouldn't go over 30 and every once and a while it would stall. So i got the car back home and contined useing it as my daily driver since i only worked 5 minutes away but after a few more weeks the car refused to stay running for more then 2 minutes, So i parked it in the back and the engine died i restarted it and i had to keep pumping the gas just to keep it running and then it died and that was the last time it ran under its own fuel system. It sat for about 6 months when i decided to replace the fuel pump, first i replaced the relay and it still wasn't running so i put a new fuel pump in it and the pump runs just fine and at the fuel valve in the engine theres fuel and alot of pressure so i know the pump is working but the engine still won't start. I put gas in the air filter and it started right up and ran great but soon as the gas burned up it quit running and i'm at a loss i have no clue what the problem could be. Has anyone else had this problem and if so how did you fix it???

Seems like its not getting enough feul. The feul filter is probaby clogged up. Try that next.

Re: 94 Lumina fuel problem

check the fuel pressure. You can have what appears to be plenty of volume, but not enough pressure will not allow your injectors to spray properly.
