I need some advice from the experts please.
1990 c1500 5.7 120,xxx miles.
On Saturday I was in a business and when I got back in the truck it went about 20' and died. I had pulled out of my parking spot and there was another car backing out of a spot so I had to stop as I got in the alley way. My truck died as I let off the gas to coast to a stop.
I cranked on it for maybe 5 seconds and it would not fire. I cycled the ignition switch again and it fired right up. Ran just fine I then pulled out on a side street and made it 2 blocks and as I let off the gas to coast a small hill the ole bugger died again. Same deal I cycled the key twice and it fired right up. I was at 1/4 tank of fuel so I went to the nearest station and filled up. And headed home. Now this morning on the way to work it did this same thing dieing as I coast to a stop. From that point on I kept some throttle in it as I came to stop lights and all was fine. Definitely fuel related and I will change the filter tonight but am a little confused of how to diagnose this other than driving in traffic. ? Do these 90 TBI have a fuel pressure tap somewhere under the hood? BTW what ever is going on has not set the SES light. Thanks in advance.
