Hi - I am Dave, contributing to RepairPal and providing expert advice since 2010. Without seeing the vehicle, it is difficult to judge whether your vehicle does not get fuel pressure due to a fuel pumping issue, or some other fuel control issue. And that's making the assumption that it's a fuel system issue to begin with – – testing is needed to figure this part out as well. You could have some kind of relay issue, or the fuel pump itself could be faulty. But I certainly wouldn't jump to any conclusions without performing some serious, hands-on testing. You might find you're not on the right path.. Are you using a properly programmed key to start the vehicle?
