I have a 93 GMC Sierra 1500 with a 350 V8. Lately it hasnt been starting unless I prime it. Ive replaced the fuel filter and still nothing. Im thinking that the only other thing it could be is the fuel injector but I would like to be sure before I replace it. Any other suggestions?

Most people never think to change the gasline filter, but a plugged gasline filter will stop a truck dead. These filters accumulate dirt and water from the fuel. In cold climates, the water in the filter freezes into a chunk of ice and that makes the filter work like a check valve shutting off the gas supply, so when you try to start the engine it does not get a steady supply of gas and will not start. Try changing it. That should help a lot.

Fuel injector and or choke. Since you stated you replaced the filter. Also remember you do have a fuel filter located in the tank on most acrs/trucks.

Oxygen sensors act like a choke,that is telling the computer to rich the fuel.
