  • My 2000 Camaro won't start

    I was driving down the highway and my car's oil pressure gage started acting funny (moving all around), then I loose the ability to accelerate or brake so I pull to he side of the road. I originally though it was not enough oil in the car or the battery/starter was the problem. But after changing/adding oil and replacing the battery the car still won't start. Could this be a alternator, spark plug, or fuel pump/sending unit issue?

    Any other suggestions, what should I check first?

    Does the car crank when you try and start it? Do the dash lights come on when you try and start it?

      The car cranks and it started for about 30 seconds and then shut off for good. The dash lights and every other light comes on.

            fire you can take off the plugwires off of coil packs and crank it over and see if there is spark and on the fuel rail there is a thing that looks like a valve stem take the cap off and push to see if there is fuel getting to it

              sounds like the fuel pump to me.

                It turns out it was the fuel pump. Anyone know where to get a replacement for a cheap price?

                        Hey, you're on a roll. Now just stay out of the intake/exhaust threads with that answer and you'll be alright.

                              It seems fuel pumps are such a common problem around here that it's hard to guess wrong. Do other cars have fuel pump issues like us?
