Why does my fuel pump not start after sitting?
When the key is turned on the fuel pump only gets 2 seconds of power, so if the line pressure is at zero there isn’t enough run time to pressurize the fuel system. Cycling the key a few times forces the pump to run for 6 seconds instead of just 2 and this will pressurize the system and allow for a quick start

Why does my GM car say no start no crank?
How to diagnose a no start no click on GM vehicle. If you have a late model GM vehicle and turn the key only to hear nothing, you’ll most likely think you have a dead battery—and you may. But a no start, no crank, no click condition can be far more involved than that.
Why does my GM 4.3L engine not start?
No Start Condition Basics There are three very basic components that the engine, in your GM vehicle, needs to start and they are: Air, Fuel and Spark. When your 4.3L, 5.0L or 5.7L GM vehicle cranks but does not start, it’s because one of these components is missing from the mix.

What kind of fuel pump does a Chevy Silverado need?
It turned out the pump I put in was for a 96 C1500, which has a throttle body system and the pump only produced 20-30psi. The Fuel injection in the Silverado needs 55-65psi. Be very careful you didn’t put the wrong fuel pump in!!
Where does the fuel pump go in a truck?
Searched forever for an answer. It turns out that in order to remove the bed of the truck, you must disconnect the ground for the fuel pump, which attaches in the rear on the drivers side. IIRC it ran either in or alongside the harness for the tail light wiring. Once I hooked that back up, my truck started right up.
