Will it run for a short time if you squirt some fuel into the throttle body? If so, then concentrate on the fuel delivery system. Fuel pressure at the test port on the fuel rail should be at least 40 PSI. If not, look at the fuel pump, the pressure regulator, and the fuel filter.

1 ton Chevy G30 With 6.5 Diesel wont start parked uphill

If the pick-up filter is located at the front of the tank and the tank is almost empty the pump would starve for fuel.

The Automatic Shut Down (ASD) relay is in the fuse box next to the battery in the engine compartment.

99 chevy express van 5.7 wont start after sitting for a day. fuel pump is new,it has spark,and no codes.

A new fuel pump can go bad but you need to know if the fuel rail has pressure or fuel in it the next day. Take something and press on the shradder valve on th fuel rail and see if you have any fuel. If not the fuel pump may be installed wrong.The fuel rail should have some pressure all the time for quick start up. I do not know if this helps but it is a start.

Fuel pump doesn't work -

the fuel pump operates off the oil pressure switch the first 5 seconds upon starting. to test turn the key to the on position and listen for the fuel pump running. it does this to prime the pressure up and to stat the engine
if not heard replace the oil switch. the way this operates is when the engine reaches full oil pressure the computer shuts off the oil switch and turns on the fuel pump relay to continued the circuit to the pump

2000 chevy express 1500 van having starting issues

Start with fuel system. Listen for fuel pump humm at fuel tank No humm check wiring to pump for power. Then check for spark at plugs and wires. Remove wire from coil and hold near engine and see arch when you crank. No arch. Replace ignition Modular inside distributor cap or cap or rotor

99 gmc wont start

check electric fuel pump operation ( located in the fuel tank ). Occasionally a fuel pump will burn out when running out of fuel, due to the fact the pump runs DRY for about 30 seconds till the fuel stops flowing out of the injectors, the engine quits, simultainously losing oil pressure which FINALLY shuts off the fuel pump. Sometimes TOO LATE. Hope this helps
