Re: 98 GTP losing fuel pressure
Like Bob mentioned, did you only let it run for a minute and shut it off because it ran longer than before, or did it die again after a minute? Go to a dealer on the resistor. It's not that expensive, and I wouldn't trust a Wells (or whatever off-brand AZ sells). Bob, you got a headache yet?, this has sure been a head scratcher, that's for sure.

 I agree stay with the GM OEM part. They run around $37.00 or so but I would relocate it to the engine compartment. There was a GM TSB out on it.

Re: 98 GTP losing fuel pressure
I just finished the bottle of tylenol......
I did shut it off after it ran for about a minute at idle as it has not done that in what seems like forever and I really do not want to chance overworking anything. I would rather spend $40 on a new resistor being pretty sure that is the problem than (with my luck on this one) burn out a PCM or fuel pump or who knows what else. It is really tough being human and making those "human errors" at the wrong time  .I will get that in tonight and let you know for sure. I do appreciate all of your help and ideas on this nightmare.

Re: 98 GTP losing fuel pressure
Well that seems to be the problem.
 Got the new one on and took er for a spin down the road . Still a little gun shy so I will take er for a couple spins when I know I can get a ride home. But I think the original problem was the cranshaft position sensor and the resistor either was on its way out or went at the same time. Whichever I am very pleased to say I do believe it is working. I still do not get why when I jumped the pump relay it did not run as it did when I jumped the fuel pump speed control relay. Again I really want to thank you guys for your continued help and patience, maybe someday in the future I can pay it forward. Thank someone for the Internet!!!!!
