Hadi,
Sounds like you have a bad primary fuel pump. When the engine is cold, start the engine and just let it run. if it warms up & dies at 176F (I think that's about right), then it is the primary fuel pump.

There are a couple of checks....
Engine cold;
Install fuel pressure gauge on the fuel rail,
Pull the secondary fuel pump fuse
Key on
low or no fuel pressure = bad primary fuel pump
key off
replace primary fuel pump

Open passenger door, look on the side of the dash for the fuse panel. Separate fuse for each pump, primary & secondary.

When started cold, Both pumps work at the same time until engine temperature reaches 176F. After that, the secondary pump shuts off.

I replaced the 2 fuel pumps with AC delco last year.

Newly replaced means nothing - aka "infant mortality". In fact, I had a new pump with a failed check valve - right out of the box. Nothing worse than assuming (just got a recent refresher lesson in that myself!!). Check functionality and forget about when it was replaced last. WHEN it was new/replaced don't mean sheeeiiittt!! Check um!

Hadi there are 2 fuses the one Feul Pump fuse is on the side panel of the passanger door it will say FP1.
The other is under the dash kick panel passanger side you need to remove the panel it will say FP2.

If you remove the FP2 fuse and your Z does not start then you will have to replace primary pump.

Like Paul said just because it's new does not mean sh!t

Ahhhh, the difference is between early & late model ZR-1's. In my 94, bot fuses are in the panel on the side of the pass door. I'll try to store that for the future. Thanks for the correction Pete.
