Hesitation, stalling, Service Engine Light

[orange57]

Hey guys,

I have an 89 Olds 98, it's been driving fine, then the other morning it was a little hard to start and when it did, the check engine light was on. The light went off after it idled for a little bit. Then, when coming back to work from lunch, the car stalled. It has since stalled a couple of times and the check engine light has come one. Or, the car will stutter a little bit and the check engine light will come one, but go away after about 10 seconds of normal driving. I'm leanig towards the fuel pump potentially. Is there a way to test the pump? I plan to pick up a pressure gauge and take a look at the fuel line pressure. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

matt

Yes check it a injector rail, fitting is right there ,also try and get the code.

Pick up a new fuel filter, befor you do the fuel pressure test.

I found my little code puller in the garage. Pulled a Code 34, which if i researched it correctly is the MAF. So it's around $200....dang it.
