Went around corner and it died. now wont start, i can hear the fuel pump, but seems like its not getting fuel
Check fuel filter not blocked.
The injectors need to be tested for pulses between the two wires (not to ground or +12) with the engine turning. With it still, you will get almost the same reading (only noticeable if you use a meer) from both wires since the injector has a coil of wire between the two terminals. The electronics may float between ground or +12 on the wires depending if they are powered up or not.
Do you have the appropriate pressure at the fuel rail? A V6 takes a lot more pressure than the 4 cylinder cars.
When you crank does the tach register a few hundred rpm? If not you could have one of the most common Fiero problems, a cooked ICM (Ignition Control Module). They can be found at autoparts stores for fifty bucks or so. Take your old one, have both checked, be sure to use the heat sink compound that comes with the module. Don't loose the little screws that hold it in. It's in the distributor, under the cap and rotor.

SOURCE: 1997 Grand Prix GTP starts but wont run for more than 5 Sec
is this a supper cahrged grand prix if so check fuel pump resistor located behind right front head light or on fire wall its made of white ceramic has to wires going to it jump the two wire on the connection going to it if it runs longer then 15 min then replace resiustor.
SOURCE: 97 gtp turns over wont start..fuel pump runs enermidintly
yep i seen it in happen .i was at a gas station a guy drove car to the gas station on empty.he fill his tank up .could not get it to crank .some cars you have to restart fuel pump when run out of gas. like chrysler.you use a scanner. but chervrolet you run low over heat damage the pump.it has to stay submerge gas to keep it cool. check fuel pump pressure.it should be 41 - 47 psi.

has to be corroded fuel pump resistor behind passenger head light under hood but Im sure by now you have done the research and found that out already 97 gtps had recalls because its in an easy spot to get corroded can buy a new kit for 40 bucks or so through gm or online
SOURCE: Too much fuel pumped into the carb. What to do?...adjust?...set?
The idle air control valve may be at fault, also the throttle position sensor may be telling the engine th wrong information and sending too much fuel, a couple other ideas come to mind but I not an expert. A faulty injector is one of them.....I another idea that may help as well: Vacuum Leak: The ECM will try to compensate for leaks up to a certain size. This will cause the ECM to compensate and possible send too much fuel to the engine...???? Good Luck
SOURCE: 88 fiero starts on it own, but wont stay running.
the brain is not sending the proper fuel pressure codes to the fuel rail to evenly distribute the fuel to the intake and fuel rail.
perform a fuel pressure test check on it ok? also run a diagnostic scan on it and see what codes come out.
