Default 2002 3800 firebird

Okay. This is a v-6 firebird that will start every time and even rev up for about 15 seconds before it dies like you turned the key off. It will continuously start and do the same thing. We have changed the fuel pump, Crank sensor, MAF sensor, fuel regulator, and run injector cleaner. I'm out of ideas and would greatly appreciate any suggestions.

Anything leaking underneath?

Check the fuel pressure, sounds like it could still be the pump

Did you have a crank position sensor relearn? I had a crank sensor go bad in my wifes benz and it would die while driving just like you took the key out. The place that did the repair said even if I replaced the CPS the relearn would have to be done.

I think its also called Case relearn.
