1998 f250 5.4l would not start. changed feul pump and filter still would not start. 20 mni later started. was cleaning engine while running 10 15 min later died wont start.

Check fuel pressure at the injector rail. Could be your fuel pump relay is cutting out. If fuel pressure is good, check for sparks at the plug wires. Read the link below for more info.

1998 sts wont start unless u hit the gas then it runs rough ..u put it in drive it wont run over 2000 rpms then it dies

Is the gas tank above 1/2 tank now?

A worn / aged fuel pump will fail when it's hot and the fuel level is low (example: below 1/4)

Park your car in a cool area.

Start the car when it's cold outside,

Check the engine fuel pump pressure.

Replace the fuel pump relay,fuel filter,fuel pump and fuel pump stainer at the same time.

Engine will turn but not start

When you turn the key on can you hear the fuel pump??? Does the engine sound normal when turning over(compression)??? Then check for spark, fuel pressure, injector signal etc.

Problem for GMC 1998 Suburban DIESEL DIES while

Its called the fuel pump cylinoide which is attached to the fuel pump. Unless the fuel pump is bad, you got an expensive part to buy around $2500 or the cylinoide is $900 whichever is broken. This is a know issue for GMC deisel suburbans 6.5.

1998 gmc 2500 sle 5.7 wont stay running

Theres only one fuel pump relay, unless you have dual tanks. Be sure you have 55-60 psi fuel pressure. I "think" the oil pressure switch supplies power to the fuel pump after the engine is running.
