as the title says...when it primes, it howls and then when i start it, it trys to start but it seems to not be getting fuel..i noticed that when i try it a couple times then open the fuel filler neck, a lot of pressure is released everytime...is there like a vent valve or something?

please help..car is sitting on the side of the road..\

 

What's the fuel pressure reading while cranking?

 

its working great again now...

my grandpa said it was probably vapor lock?

so i getta vented gas cap i guess..

it was really hot today to so that added to it.

 

How long since a fuel filter change? IMO, "vapor lock" is an explaination (ie excuse) when nothing else comes to mind - I personally would keep hunting for an issue.

 

literally JUST changed the fuel filter..

 

Hey man I'm actually having this same issue with my car as I text you about this ,but to get my 92 camero Z-28 with a 5.7 eng starting again. We changed out the fuel Pump Sending unit and for my car it wasn't cheap it hit me for about $245.00 well man short of changing out your Fuel Pump I hope this get's you back on the road.Peace

 

Koolz, I did the same thing with my 91 Camaro RS, with the Z-28 5.7eng. Seemed fine after the change, but now its starting to do the same thing.
If i let it set for a little bit, it starts up fine and runs fine, but as it heats up I acts like fuel isn't getting fed.
I'm gonna try what 'camaronewbie' suggested with the fuel filter change and hope to god that it works.

 

I had an ignition control module start causing an issue like this before.

 

ehh my 87 iroc camaro started doing this and i ignored it then the fuel pump went out in the middle of a 1200 mi trip. Take it and get your fuel pressure tested you don't want to get stranded. Take Care
