I own a 1999 suburban with a 5.7L, today for the first time it started it's problem. While driving down the road it died, after pulling over it will restart and run again. Also died at idle, but will always restart. Notice fuel pump in tank seems to be louder than normal and runs all the time. Not sure if it is normal for it to run all the time, did not notice this before. I am going to start by replacing the fuel filter and checking the fuel pump (saw a problem in a forum about a conection problem with the fuel pump). Any ideas of other things to check?

My 1999 did the samething. The fuel pump started getting louder and then one day it just quite. Better start planning to replace it. They are known for going bad. Good Luck, Dondobe
