Hey, Barrie, I don't think my van is getting gas. Tried the fuel relay but it was not tripped. Guess I will try the filter next. I don't have any way to check fuel pressure. Won't change the fuel pump myself. Too old for that.

Can you verify fuel supply? I know they are a bitch to work on.

Can't really get to anything. Going to try the filter first.
I know the engine compartment in those are miserable to work on.

If I was sure it was a fuel pump, I would cut an access hole in the floor.
LOL, been there done that.
Wonder if you could use an electric fuel pump and just ignore the manual pump? My Blazer at Lake Havasu has a dead fuel pump, and that's what I'm going to do.
Is it fuel injected

I am more familiar with carbureted vehicles.
Evening Chris.
Is it possible for you to pull the interior engine cover off?

Might try that tomorrow. Have to finish getting the tree cut up. Weather is getting bad tomorrow night.
If you can check the schrader valve and see if you have fuel pressure.
Don't forget fuel injection needs the right psi to open injectors
No Chris, the blazer (actually a Jimmy) has a 650 cfm Holly. I have an electric fuel pump installed already to get the fuel to the carb momentarily, since the fuel dries up in the lines with that 120° temp. I just need the switch tied to the ignition so it stays on.
Yes fuel pressure regulator has to be satisfied.
