2000 oldsmobile bravada, won't start. I replaced

2000 oldsmobile bravada, won't start. I replaced the fuel pump twice within six months and today my truck stopped at an intersection. I tried starting it with no success, however, it did start once but cut off once I pressed down on the gas paddle. Please advise

This sounds familiar to me. I assume you replaced the fuel filter, if not, do so. Anyway, the same thing happened to be and I made it to the garage somehow and they said it was the pump, located inside the tank. 3 days later I picked it up and paid $350.00. It happened again a month later and I had it towed home ( the service garage changed hands and would not honor warranty). I unbolted and unstrapped the gas tank with a jack under it. The gauge said 1/4 tank so I figured on 40 lbs of fuel plus the tank.....wrong.... The tank was empty and the fuel pump had never been replaced. I has just never run my tank down that low before, so I had no way of knowing the gauge/float was miscalibrated. You never know....

Low power and missfire, have replaced bad distributor and rotor. 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada AWD. Where are the fuel pump and filter located?

I have replaced Distributor cap, rotor, wires, and spark plugs in my 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada AWD smart track. To replace one spark plug I had to collapse the steering column, but everything went O.K. Did you marked the wires?. Did you reconnect them in the firing order?
The fuel pump is located In the fuel tank. Remove the fuel tank and take the fuel pump out from the top. This is part cost $300 and need some skills to be replaced.
The fuel filter it is directly in front of the fuel tank. Another one is incorporated with the fuel pump.

Your problem is the fuel pump pressure check valve is defective, this is part of the fuel pump and the fuel pump is located in the fuel tank. Have the fuel pump replaced.

Fuel

the fuel filter sounds like the problem, are you sure its carborated not fuel injucted because fuel injuction has a regulater for the fuel if it is stuck open you would pump gas to the fuel rail and back to the fuel tank

make sure you check the simple things. like the fuel filter if they get plugged they will give low to no fuel pressure. plug wires if they haven't been changed for a while.plugs themselves will tell you lots take them out and check them to see how they look.
