Carburator clean up could help solve the problem, it seems some dirt may have entered the float chamber!
Blow the jets with compressed air.
Hope this helps!

2002 Saturn SC2 slowly died on highway and won't quite start

Check for a shorted or grounded fuel injector the test light will flash but there's not enough current to move the injector. Use a DVOM check that they're all the same.

2002 HD 1500 Chevroley 4WD 4 door truck engin lost power and died could start but when acelarated died max rpm 800 pulled filter turned key on pump shot a stream of gas 3 ft and stoped ran only secon

It is normal for the pump to run for two seconds when first switched on to pressurize the fuel system. It will turn on again when cranking and while running. I would still suspect the pump given your symptoms, however other problems could also give you the same symptoms. If it is the original pump from 2002, or more than about 7 or 8 years old, I would definitely replace it, and the fuel filter. Often the pump will go intermittent. I had one that I could restart and get down the road by hitting the bottom of the gas tank a few times!
