You replace the fuel pump relay, but did you check to see if the fuel pump is working?
You can remove the gas cap, have some one turn the key to the start position and listen for the hum of the fuel pump spinning. The fuel pump will only spin for a couple of seconds and if the engine doesn't start it will shut down.
How much gas is in the tank? If it reads less than half you could have a bad transfer pump and the side that the pump is located in could be empty.
Added some gas to it and start it up after a few tries..Thanks alot what does this mean the level unit is bad? or should I just try to have more then half a tank at all times.? ..Again thank you very much
