whats the smileage on the engine ? when was the last time a new fuel pump was installed and when was the last time you had the fuel filter changed or thetiming belt was checked? or a new one was installed? The fuel pump on all gm cars have been a major issue the pump is in the top of the gas tank and is designed to be surrounded by fuel to be kept cool. Often times people do not even keep the tank fulll and when its not covered in fuel it can over heat. It overheats for a long period of time and eventually will fail. once that happens fuel failure is inevitable.
