My info says 56--62 psi fuel pressure, 2.2L engine. Key on engine off.

Testimonial: "Have 70 key on not running,new fuel filter ."

    Usually if pressure is too high, you look for a problem on the return side. Maybe the return line is trying to clog? Don't take any fuel lines loose unless your sure there is no pressure on the fuel system.
    What made you ask about fuel pressure, are you having problems?
    My info says fuel pressure too high, check the return side. Fuel pressure too low, check the supply side. It also said the fuel pressure regulator could go either way?

    Just add that fuel pressure spec came from vehicle specifications guide for that GM engine size. I tried to verify spec from different source, but, haven't found anything.

    This truck has pressure regulator in fuel filter.I blew compressed air in the return line off filter and it is open.

  • john bass Nov 01, 2017

    Also it is new filter.

    I understand. At the moment, I'm not sure of your problem? Are you worried the fuel pressure is too high? At the moment, I don't know what else?

  • john bass Nov 01, 2017

    Loads up at idle and full throttle with or with out tps unplug. Scan toll shows tps working fine.

    Here is some GM fuel trim, notes.
    If fuel trim is high at low speed and loads, look for a vacuum leak. If the fuel trim is high at high speeds and load, look for a fuel volume problem due to pump performance or a restriction. If fuel trim is high at all speeds and loads, look for a pcm input fault, maybe a maf issue, where applicable, or disconnected intake duct.
    If you want notes for negative fuel trims, I'll post that also.
    Usually when checking fuel pressure, after it builds up. I turn the key off and see if the pressure holds? If it drops like a rock, you have a fuel pressure leak.

Hey there boatright33,

A few things things immediately come to mind.

There may be a problem with the engine controller. You could check the ODBII onboard diagnostics. Auto part stores will usually do this for you at no cost.

When you pulled the ones that were/went bad, how did the filters look? Could there be particulate matter still in the tank causing them to fail.

I always put this one off until last. Check the injectors. Are they gummed up?

Let me know what you find out
Mike

check to see if you removed the fuel pump solenoid, which is one of the steps you should have done when changing the pump.

The only thing left in this system is the fuel pressure regulator. You need to check pressure before the regulator and after the regulator if there is the problem then you need to replace it. I hope this helps. Don't forget to rate my answer.

SOURCE: Fuel pump fuse keeps popping

You have a short to ground or the pump is starting to go bad. You can run a seperate wire from the hot side of the fuse to your pump to see if it is the pump or if you use an ohm meter to check the wire and the pump. Get's a little technical though.

1995 gmc Sonoma.Replaced fuel pump for low pressure.Now we have fuel pressure but lost spark to engine. Truck was towed to work area.

check out the ignition module in the distributor if there is one. they are especially wonky and control both fuel pump and ignition spark at startup.

What is standard running fuel pressure on 4.3L v6?

Nothing wrong with fuel pressure should be fine. Pressure should not bleed off when vehicle not running that is probably why you have to crank for a while before it starts. I would check all fuel line connections from tank forward as you have a pressure "leak" somewhere along the line to loose fuel pressure.

1996 sonoma 2.2 replaced fuel pump and filter cant get to run, idles smooth but dogs out when you push the throttle.

Check you fuel pressure AND flow. With line disconnected and in a suitable collection jug, you should be getting 2 litres + of fuel with the pump running for 30 secs. Have you got this? Let me know.

Fuel pump will not come on 1996 gmc sonoma 4.3

Well that is the correct action of the pump relay. The computer grounds the pump relay for a couple of seconds to prime the pump then the oil pressure switch provides power once the engine starts.
You should be able to jumper the relay and power the pump as much as you want to test the circuit.

2004 gmc sonoma why does it take 2-3 times cranking before it starts and only does it sometimes?

install pressure gauge and watch when key is turned off to see if pressure drops to zero if so bad drain back valve in fuel pump replace it or deal with it or could be cheap aftermarket pump and has hard time building unnecessary pressure to open poppet valves between before fuel injectors

Fuel pressure specs for gmc sonoma 4.3

2001-2004 gmc sonoma 4.3 [X, W Eng.] fuel system specs: 60-66 psi when you turn the ignition key (fuel pump) on without starting the engine. If fuel pressure drops back down quickly after fuel pump stops working (works for only 5 sec.) then you have a bad fuel pump or leaking injector spider.
