    It could be GM's VATS anti-theft system preventing it from cranking. See if your ignition key looks like the ones in the photos below and read how to bypass the VATS system.

    First check the fuel pump pressure. If the pressure is low, check the fuel filter. If it's OK, It's probably the fuel pump. If it's making a loud noise, it's probably bad. Hope this helps. Master tech 40 yrs.
