After spending almost 1k and replacing everything related to the fuel system ,yes it was the driver module up above the spare tire , put it in n it started right up, but then it didnt wanna take gas at the pump so I had to drop the tank again and it had a slight kink in one of the vacuum lines , but yes it is running now thanks for asking and I hope this helps anyone who needs it
I've got a 03 that's doing the same thing I just put new pump and filter in it and it does ok for a few days the fuel pump quit working
Are you sure the fuel pump quit working because that's what I thought as well and like I said it turned out to be the driver module, I pulled the pump and cked it on the battery and it actually was working. The module is about 100dollars,
This is what it should look like
I hope all this helps and you dont have to spend the money I did,
If you have the tool take the fuel line at the injector rail apart and see if fuel is coming out when you turn the key, or at the fuel filter disconnect the out line and see if the pressure changes when you turn the key , I'm guessing it wont , that's how I figured out mine if theres not enough pressure it wont start, which would be the driver module, let me know if this works
