It does at first glance seem fuel related. Check the fuel pump electrical connection at the pump for corrosion and if you have not done so recently,change the fuel filter . Chances are,the pump has reached the end of its life. When the pressure relief valve is pushed on the fuel rail,if fully pressurized,the fuel should strongly spray out. if nothing is found wrong, then the HEP can be considered. If it is the pump,i would also check the condition of the inside of the gas tank and replace as necessary.I had similar problems with the 'Baron and found it full of powdered and chunks of rust that clogged the pickup sock for the pump and also had gotten into the pump itself causing failure.

When the tow truck dropped the car, it started and I drove in my garage? Then it wouldn't start till I tried today, then it ran for about 3 min. and died. I was thinking it was the fuel pump when I pushed the little valve on the fuel rail the gas just dripped out. Will the rail hold presser when the car is off? Other then that it could be the HAL in the dist. Any help will be welcome. Roy 86 GLHS #200 87 Shelby Lancer #781 5sp cloth 81 Fiat X1/9 85 Honda Interceptor 500 Will I ever get out of the 80's?
