96 Chevy Silverado k1500

Asked by Jamal Sep 18, 2015 at 07:49 PM about the 1996 Chevrolet C/K 1500 Silverado RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Okay i stop and got gas and went down the interstate like 40mph and my
truck slowed down like if my truck was giving out of gas. So i hit the gas
pedal and it backfire!!!! So now I done a couple of tests I'm getting spark,
brand new fuel pump (a month ago) and fuel filter, I checked my fuel
pressure I'm getting 60psi but then it slowly goes down. I even took all the
fuel injectors out laid them on shop towels and try to start it and gas barely
come out like drips. By the way every since it happen the trucks cranks but
wont turn over to start. I need help guys??

Your fuel pressure sounds like an issue yet. If the pressure get down below 56 lbs. it will not run good, and start having a hard starting condition. Under 51 lbs. and she wont start. Please let me know on fuel pressure.
