Check your fuel pressure and if its not within the specs replace fuel filter and pump.If its within the specs then check the ignition switch these cars are known for faulty ignition switches.
Very rarely can you repair a power steering hose, in most cases other than tightening, replacement is necessary . They are high pressure and are specially made for your particular car (custom fit)
Are you sure that the fuel pump is properly installed? Have you tested the fuel pump circuits to see if they are working properly? Did you also replace your fuel filter? (It could be totally clogged up) Have you checked to see if there is any fuel pressure at the fuel rail or are you just assuming that the pump is not delivering fuel to the injectors? Have you checked your fuel injector circuits for power and for injector pulse from the EngineControl Module? Have you scanned your Engine Control module to see if you possibly have a Crank Sensor or Cam Sensor problem?
The oil pressure switch only keeps the fuel pump running once the engine starts. The fuel pump should run for 2-3 seconds when you turn the ignition switch to the "Run" position to prime the injectors. The oil pressure switch is the problem only if the engine will not continue to run on its own after it starts up.
Most likely cause for this is the Oil Pressure Switch, also commonly known as the Oil Sending Unit. It's a sensor that when failing, will indicate low oil pressure either due to a lack of oil or insufficient pressure through the oil line.
There is no fuel pump cut off switch in General Motors vehicles.If you don`t have fuel pressure or the pump is not running you have to check the fuel pressure with a fuel pressure gauge.You can check the fuel pump fuse and make sure it is good.Hope this helps.Good luck.
GM CARS DON'T USE A FUEL PUMP RESET BUTTON, THEY HAVE AN OIL PRESSURE CONTROLLED FUEL PUMP CUTOFF SWITCH ON THE ENGINE, IF THE CAR HAS NO OIL PRESSURE AND THE KEY WAS ON THE FUEL PUMP SHUTS OFF.
Check the fuel pressure regulator. Pull off the vac line to it and see if any gas is leaking out of the vacuum fitting. If you see any fuel replace the regulator.
