Lack of fuel pressure can be caused by a failing fuel pump or a clogged fuel filter. Depending on the fuel pressure specification, the fuel pump can be condemned. A proper diagnostic inspection should be performed in order to prove that the fuel pump is faulty or find a different cause. A certified technician should replace your fuel pump if necessary.
