You will need a fuel pressure gauge and connect to the fuel pressure test port on the fuel rail. It should test around 49psi. If lower than that you will probably need to change your fuel filter/regulator.

Ok I took it to a mechanic. He charged me $90 to say that it was the relay..that I had all ready checked. He replaced it and I drove it home. I took it for a drive to make sure it was fixed. It made it 2 miled and died again. Now it will not start at all???????????[:@]

Get the $90 back since it wasn't the relay.

OK I towed it back to the mechanic and when he tryed to start it it started fine. He said it might take him a couple of days but he will find the problem. He said the money that I paid him yesterday will apply to the work he does on it today. So I guess now I am just waiting. Also I am getting code 42 now.
