Well, 2003 Z66 with 20,000 miles (yes, 20k). Purchased new in 03 rarely driven. About six weeks ago I went to drive it and it would not start, just cranked. Let it sit and went back and it started right up. Drive 7 miles, parked for 20 min. and leave (no issues). Five min. later stalls in road. Flat bedded home and put in garage. Next day starts right up. Thought that it might be the fuel pump relay so I spent the $12 and replaced it. Did not drive it but would go out and start it 2-3 times a day, no issues. Fast forward to last Sunday...going to take it to Miami for some exercise. Starts right up, pull out of the garage and let it sit running for a few min. before I leave - stalls. It just cranks but won't start. Let it sit for 5 min. and it starts right up. Needless to say it goes right back in the garage. So, I'm guessing that it's the fuel pump. Is there anything else that would cause this? Just 20K on it...looks and smells new. Dealer wants $850+- to replace. I could do it as I have a lift in the garage but do I want to mess with it (has a full tank of gas). What say you all? Thanks for any suggestions.
