Old carb type do suffer from flowt problems, also people dont change the filters regularly so the inline carb filter blocks up., you would need to remove the carb and take the float chamber housing off. check the condition of the floats, and check the valve, if there is what looks like wet/dry dust in the float chamber then the filter has failed and you will need to clean the jets, you will need a few cans of carb cleaner or a big can of spray to clean it out. change the filters depending on carb fitted, there can be a filter above the valve or the fuel in line to the carb, also the main filter. replace the seals and refit when clean, would also at some point remove the tank and clean it out.

Have you check the injector relay or maybe a fuse for injectors.

SOURCE: My problem is my 1990 GMC Sierra was running then

You need to do a fuel pressure test on it. You also need to test the injectors w/a noid light to see if you have pulse to the injectors.

SOURCE: 2001 gmc sierra 1500 not getting fuel

remove fuel line from throttle body and have someone try to start. If no fuel is "shooting" out of line, there is a block. clean out line or replace.

SOURCE: I have a 1989 GMC sierra 4.3 Liter, fuel pressure

u can do the check the other way around/ disconnect the fuel line that supply the injectors/ put the pipe in a small plastic container to see if fuel is being supplied by the pump and avoid fuel spill in ur engine/ crank the engine for at least 5 seconds see if the fuel squirts with pressure/ if it does then ur fuel pump is ok / blockage is somewhere down the fuel line/ u can check fuel lines by blowing it with air but u gonna need the help of an air compressor.....

No gas flow through the fuel injectors. need diagram of caborator for 1990 GMC Sierra 4x4

If u have no fuel to any of the injectors the pump is burned out which is located in the tank. If it is fuel injected their is no carb only an intake manifold.

My 1990 GMC sierra pu dies randomly while driving or even sitting. Seems to be more prevalant when raining but now does it all the time.

COULD BE BAD IGNITION COIL OR MODULE.IT COULD BE BAD FUEL INJECTOR OR INJECTORS.CLOGGED FUEL FILTER. A BAD DISTRIBUTOR CAP ROTOR + BAD PLUGS AND WIRES WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS AND BAD FUEL WITH WATER IN IT.
