I have an old ’87 Buick Park Avenue. It has 89,000 miles on it. I’ve had the fuel injectors replaced. The problem is that it takes too long for the gas to get to the carborator before it starts. Could it be the fuel pump? Once it starts, it runs well. I think that it doesn’t have enough pressure to keep gas up to the carborator. – Tony H.
The fuel pump could definitely cause your vehicle to have a delay in starting right up. You could also have a fuel pump relay that may not be energizing the pump correctly. But, keep in mind, there are several other components and systems that could also cause the same problem. I would recommend having an engine performance/fuel system diagnosis performed to be absolutely sure that this is where the problem lies. Thank you!
