    yesterday driving down a 45 MPH road the car started sputtering. (like it was running out of gas). Now, the computer screen deal told me that It was low, but I did not have the low fuel light on the dash, and the gauge was between an 1/8th and the orange. it finally stalled and i coasted into a parking lot next to a walmart station. I cranked it and pumped that gas as it tried to fire and was able to get it running. drove over to the walmart station, and got to the pump and it seemed to be running ok. I filled it up, and i died during the pumping. I then started it and it jumped around a little, but eventually came out of it and seemed to be fine.

    huh, ok? that was weird but I guess the car learned a new trick?

    we drove to a store and then headed home. 3 miles from home it did it again. crap. tried to start. it cranks hard and then fires for just a second and dies. trying to give it gas does nothing.

    I hear pump running. So wife tows me home with the suburban. I put fuel gauge on it. says 50 lbs. and stays up there when trying to start etc.

    I was thinking fuel filter, but would I have good pressure?

    99gpgtp (I think is his name) recommended unplugging maf and trying it. I have not done that yet. working now, and battery was to low to crank last night (and had to take the boy trick or treating)... Ill try when I get home (on charger overnight).

    the FP relay 85 pin has already been bent out. ideas for what to do next? if the maf dont work?
