1998 3.8L V6 Supercharged GTP Won't start- Fuel??

**gtpmaddi** · 03-17-2013

Hi everyone,

So today I drove my 1998 Grand Prix GTP all day, with considerably low fuel and had no problems. Turned it off and had it sitting in my driveway (it's below freezing outside) and after about 30 minutes the car would not start up again. Starter and other engine components seem to be fine. Had gas delivered (about 6 litres) and still would not start. Stutters but won't start up. Really need to get it going as it is my only means of transportation at the moment. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Try spraying starting fluid in it and see if it starts or try unplugging the maf sensor

sounds like the fuel pump is worn or weak from running it low on fuel. if it doesnt start after it sits with gas then it probably needs a new fuel pump. there is an access for the pump in the trunk right behind the back seat where the pass thru is for the trunk under the carpet...pretty easy to change the pump
