Why does your 92 Silverado start and run for about 30 seconds then it dies?

Fuel issues:

- Clogged fuel filter: This prevents the flow of fuel from the tank to the engine.

- Faulty fuel injector or fuel pump: This can disrupt the fuel supply to the engine.

Fuel-pressure issues:

- Leak in the fuel line: Insufficient fuel pressure might disrupt starting or cause the engine to die.

Vacuum issues:

- Leak in the intake manifold gasket or vacuum hose: Air leaking into the engine through a leak can disrupt performance.

Electrical issues:

- Alternator: It needs to function well enough to keep its battery sufficiently charged.

- Ignition coil problem: This will disrupt spark delivery

- Starter problems

- Worn brushes

- Faulty or dirty connections

- Internal mechanical wear
