Recently my car started sputtering then stalled out on start up. When this didn't happen it would start up fine and then the engine would just cut off while I was driving. I have read some posts on this and have done the following things:
replaced fuel filter
checked TPS-it was fine
checked and cleaned MAF
I replaced the fuel pump relay and the car worked fine for a day then started acting up again.
I then checked fuel pressure with a gauge and my pressure was at 62psi which is too high. So I then surmised it was a broken fuel pressure regulator. I went to crank the car up again to try and get home but the car wouldn't start. The engine still turns over but doesn't even try to start up. I checked the fuel pressure again and now I am not getting ANY. please help with what else I should test to find what is wrong?
