HELP! Car wont start! I am stuck (87 5KCSQ)

[auditude at cox.net]

Hi Adam,

Try to confirm that the fuel pump is coming on when you crank it.  If not, try swapping out
your fuel pump relay.  You could have some fuel pressure at the filter, but if the pump isn't
consistently pumping then that could be a problem.

I had a no start problem for a while that was the relay.  Another thing I've heard of is the fuel
pump check valve, but if you have pressure at the filter that's probably not it.
