I would replace the pressure regulator, and check the injectors for leakdown.

This sounds llike weak feul pressure, the fuelpump may need replacing, the first thing to do is have the fuel pressure tested and if the pressure is low then have the pump replaced. the pump is located inside the fuel tank and the tank will need to be dropped to replace the pump, good luck ,

Engine light was on and van was running rough. The local repair center says that it needs a new fuel pump (2 of 6 sensors are receiving low fuel pressure ratings). I keep getting different answers on what...

First check the pressure at the fuel rail at the top of the engine with a fuel pressure gauge these ar fairly expensive for what they are about a 100$ so if you can borrow one it would be great. doing this ensures you truly have low fuel pressure instead of a sensor or electrical problem. If the pressure is low, Id start with the easiest cheapest thing first should be the fuel filter if it is in line, if its in the fuel pump itll be harder, might think about doing both pump and filter at same timeif this is your case, also theres a fuel pressure regulator located at begging of fuel rail should be about forty dollars but easy to replace. fuel pumps generally just die and dont loose pressure, It is rare for a fuel pump to lose pressure so id replace it last.

1998 Chevy tahoe Hard to start when cold

Hello, yes the check valve is in the fuel pump assembly. The check valve is leaking and the pump will burn out soon. Unfortunately the aftermarket fuel pumps can be very unreliable. A good portion of problems we see on this site are from people who replace the pump sometimes twice and it still doesn't work.
