Check engine for a spark at the sprak plug wires.
If spark is present, spray carb cleaner into the intake ant try starting the engine if it starts then fuel isn't reaching the cylinders (bad injectors or injector "spider" part where all injectors meet).
The engine in your “Jimmy” is
The engine in your “Jimmy” is a “Vortec”. A Vortec engine has a “Higher Fuel Pressure” requirement than a “Non Vortec” engine.
If you’re reading 45 psi at idle (or with KOEO) then that’s your problem. We’ll get into the causes later. Don’t want to hit you with everything all at once. For now using a “Fuel Pressure Gauge”, confirm the “Stats” below and get back to us.
Fuel system pressure with ignition key on and engine off (55 – 61) PSI
Fuel system pressure at idle (55 – 58) PSI
Fuel pump pressure with return line briefly restricted. (61) PSI
