    so it starts then stalls like 10 seconds later, sorta like it ran out of gas?

    if so thats the hi speed fuel resistor gone bad.

    bend the tab out like it says in the pic. that bypasses the resistor. if it runs the resistor is bad. most run it like that forever.

    some never fix it. some do. its your call in the end. its just running the pump in hi speed mode full time. dont seem to wear on the pump.

    Check your vacuum line from your throttle body to your map sensor. Sounds too simple to be true, I know. Replace the crappy plastic ones with rubber. I bet that has something to do with it.

    On the resistor.. it's the same GP or Regal.

    It's this connector


    Here's a picture of the whole car

    and the wiring goes behind the washer tank


    Because GM never thought it would burn up, three bolts hold the tank in place, then one more and the resistor can be removed


    However.. the replacement from GM gets bolted to the center top of the firewall. Reality is.. many of us have bent the tab and smiled. Since we have a pressure regulator, that takes care of the issue. A fuel pump hotwire kit runs the pump in high speed all the time. So there's no worries overall of running in high speed mode. My Regal has been that way for 2+ years now.

    CPS is Camshaft Position Sensor to be technical. Most here will know you are talking about the CKPS which is the CranKshaft Position Sensor. And yes.. you need to pull the balancer.

    Here's the how to with pics.

    why not just chop the resistor off and twist the 2 wires together? hotwire kit just gives you a plug with a wire that just loops back to the other wire.
