Probs with 90 Lumina

[Hazard71]

Okay I'm not to adept at car problems. I had my Water pump replaced yesterday and the car drove fine to my home. Then I went to the grocery and when I left the car bogged down when I was pulling out like it wasnn't getting gas. So I started it again and it will run for a little while while reving the engne but the minute I put it in drive and hit the gas it putters like its not getting fule and dies. it eventually gets to the point where it will not start at all as if the gas tank is empty but it has 3/4 of a tank of gas that I just put in that day. If I let it sit for awhile it will eventually start again but the whole procedure just happens all over.

So any ideas of what the prob could be? I mean could replacing the water pump have caused this problem? Also the antifreeze was spraying on parts of the engine when the pump went bad, so could that have caused the problem?

Wecome to AF. Not a water pump issue, have the fuel pressure tested, 37 psi.
