Help - car won't stay running 2002 Z28 automatic, bone stock, 97K miles. I started it to let it warm up for work (19° outside). It was running fine when I locked it up and went in the house. When I came back out, it had died. Would not restart. So I got a ride to work. When I got back home, tried it again. and it would start and run for 1-2 seconds then die. Then would not start at all.
At first I thought it was a frozen fuel line, but it has since warmed up to about 60°. and it does the same thing. If it's sat awhile, it'll run 1-2 seconds then die. I can hear the fuel pump priming. If I try it again right away, it just cranks but will not fire. Gas tank is almost full.
If anybody has any ideas on what to check, or has encountered this before, any information would be appreciated!
Thanks.
