I have a 1996 Chevy C1500 5.7L with 154k miles. It runs great, has plenty of power, but yesterday I drove across town after it sat for 2 weeks low on gas, I put 30 bucks in gas in it, parked it and went out to start it a few hours later, and it sputtered, I couldn't hear the fuel pump, and it just cranked. About 5 minutes later I tried and it started fine. Later that day after starting it in a parking lot, after 30 seconds of idling, it died but started right up afterwards. I've owned it for 2.5 years and its always had a buzzing fuel pump, original owner said he put 2 or 3 fuel pumps in it. It has a new fuel filter and the last few months it cranks for a couple seconds then fires right up. Also it smells like it runs a little rich. Had O'Reilly's scan the computer, no results found. Is the fuel pump dying or?
