1998 1500 Z71 cranks and starts when carb is primed. Won't stay running. How can I tell if the fuel pump is operating. is there a fuse? I see a fuel soleniod fuse block - does that power the fuel pump.

Truck will stay started as long as it is being primed, and the fuel pump and filter has already been checked and is working great.

if it is a electric fuel pump take the fuel line off carburator and get a three foot gas line hook it up to the gas line on the car run gas line into an empty gallon container and turn key on and see if you are getting a good flow of gas
