Sounds like your describing a Fuel Pump fault. Fuel pressure should be between 41-47 PSI Any check engine light coming on? Have computer checked for trouble codes as well. Let us know Jim mjungier New User May 15, 2008, 6:50 AM Post #3 of 5 (2440 views) Re: 99 alero wont stay running Sign In My one friend tried that and he said the fuel pressure was reading good. I've tired a new MAF sensor and a MAP sensor and neither were the problem. The light is on because the 02 sensor is (bad) I guess because I currently dont have a cat converter, which was removed because we thought that would be the problem. I just have a straight pipe so its not even connected. mjungier New User May 24, 2008, 4:22 AM Post #4 of 5 (2416 views) Re: 99 alero wont stay running Sign In ?

Put the converter and o2 sensor back on now as that wasn't the trouble and confuses the situation now if not even plugged in.........
