96 olds bravada fuel pressure?

[Steve]

I have a 96 olds Bravada it cranks but will not start acts like it is not getting fuel replaced the fuel filter and fuel pressure regulator. I hooked it up to a fuel pressure gauge when I turn the key to the on position I get 51 psi reading. strange thing is if I turn it off and right back on I get 55 psi but it still will not start unless I spray it with starting fluid. When it starts it run great Im running out of ideas help if you can thanks.

my 2000 olds bravada did this and i changed out the fuel pump and it fixed it right up. i suggest changing the fuel pump I did everything you did hoping it wasnt that and ended up being the fuel pump.

these trucks are tempormental i had the same problem on mine a couple weeks ago it would run great if i started it with starting fluid but it was a bad fuel pump i was pushing out 54 psi but the vortec motor need's 62 psi to start and run right it was a some what cheap fix 135 dont buy the whole assembly if you do replace it i bought just the pump and strainer it saves you about 165 dollar's
