I have a 2000 silverado and it has a starting problem. It takes me about 3-4 times to start it. It turns over everytime, but wont start until the third or fourth time. It sounds normal when i try and start it, it just wont start. When it does start it takes a second for it to completely start up, like its struggling for fuel. Ive already replaced the battery and fuel filter. It seems like a fuel delivery problem to me, or maybe a sensor is going bad. I have no way to tell that because no check engine light has come on. Any ideas?

Replying to: crowhill2 (Nov 23, 2007 7:34 am) We chaned the fuel filter, checked the line for pressue and had pressure to the carb, but did not get a start. Then changed the fuel pump (in tank with the screen also required), and got a start immediately. System requires a high pressre to wok anseven with a working pump we were not gettingenough pressure. A new ful ilter and screen did the trick. AS a preventitive measue we has also at first changed the fuel fuse relay? Pressure at the carb from he pump is the key. Good Luck

#37 of 193 Broke down chevy by rangerflyboy Dec 10, 2007 (3:48 pm)
Hey all,   I have a 2001 Chevy 2500 HD. For some reason which I cant explain I'm having problems starting it. I've changed the batteries, alternator, spark plugs and spark plug wires, and fuel filter. Now ever time I try to start it up I can hear to fuel pump kicking on, I can smell the gas going through to the engine and the starter is kicking, but the engine just is not catching. Does anybody out there have any clue as to why my truck won't start aside from kremlins?   V/R, Rangerflyboy Replies to this message: pipefittterr (Mar 08, 2008 7:31 pm)
