SOURCE: i have a 1998 Chevy Silverado 5.7L

I have a 99 CK2500 that had simular problems. If at a stopsign or redlight some times it would die. If under way it would cut out for a second but not die. It ended up being the crank sensor. Hope this helps...Justin

SOURCE: FUEL PUMP FOR CHEVY SILVERADO

fuel filter? how about power to the fuel pump,loose ground wire to chasis? wiring harness? terminals clean at point of connection?did you check the fuel pump relay? Relay is located in electrical center under the hood on the driver side.relay and fuse legend will be on bottom side of cover, you sould be able to switch with another relay that you know works, ie: switch horn relay with fuel pump relay, honk horn to insure both relays are working when either relay is inserted into horn slot. Do you by chance have the electrical schematic drawing for the fuel pump?

SOURCE: 2001 chevy silverado,low fuel light on w/full tank

My 2001 Silverado with 113,000 mi has the same problem. I was told that with the fuel formula change in last few years it has affected vehicles 2002 or 2003 and older because it has corroded the metal that the float moves on. Mine will at times start working when it's 3/4 or less gas in the tank. My solution is to reset the trip od at every fill up. I get approx 450 mi on a tank but refill at 400 to be on the safe side.

This answer I got makes sense to me, but who knows.

SOURCE: process to change fuel pump on 2001 chevy silverado 1500

take the six bed bolt loose and then take three buddies slide the bed back put in the new pump slide it back n place and put the bed bolts back in. if u drop the tank u can easily break the hard plastis lines that go to the fuel tank. u only have to take the fill lines and taillight wires loose this way its alot quicker, and easier.

Hello, my name is Ben. Your starter is down low on the passenger side of the truck, at the right rear of the engine. If you get under the truck on the passenger side and look up, you will see it.

Usally the fuel pump, you can try to spray some starting fluid in the throttle body to see if it trys to start up. Also check for spark at the plugs.

2001 chevy silverado 1500 4.3 v6. new fuel pump, new cats, plugs wires roater and distributer cap. shuts off after driving for a little bit gives no sign or warning. cant figure it out help please!!!

Start off by taking a spark plug out when it shuts down. If it is dry and a light tannish color, then you have a gas problem. If it is wet and dark colored, then you have a spark problem. Let me know what you find out.

You will have to have the dealer reset the security light to restart vehicle.Check all engine and chassie grounds because this is where the lighting would exit the vehicle.It sounds like a ground burnt through.
