Get a fuel PSI gauge, I believe there is a schrader valve, check for fuel pressure. My money is on the Ignition Control Module under the distributor cap.

Changed the oil and filter yesterday. Oil pressure gauge was reading about 12psi at idle before the change, now it's maybe at 14psi or so. To be frank, I never paid much attention to the oil pressure gauge as I've never had many issues with this pickup. Couldn't tell you for sure what it "normally" reads, but I vaguely remember about 15psi being the norm while going down the road. More to come in a couple of weeks, I guess.

Your fuel pump may not run a second time right away, Wait a minute or so to try the second time.

With a throttle body, you can watch to see if its squirting fuel when it won't start.

Haven't got there yet, but may well be on my way!
