91 Chevy Silverado idles but doesn't stay on

Asked by ApollosEmbers Apr 20, 2016 at 03:41 PM about the Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I've been working on my 1991 Chevy Silverado
1500 and I've replaced the fuel pump, fuel pump
relay, along with the filter. Yet it only idles when I put
gas into the throttle body and doesn't stay running.
What could be the problem? And how would I fix it?
