what was the reason for changing it?
On my ’01 sierra 5.3L, when i go to start it, the motor will turn over for
2-3 seconds then fire, sometime i have to re-try and then it will start.

Thanks bro. Word of caution though if your chevy has been starting this way
for awhile like mine, the fuel pressure can build up and spray everywhere
when you remove the regulator. WIsh I had fixed this sooner. The repair
worked like a charm. Fixed my hard start condition. I got the Delphi part
off amazon and very easy to replace.
