it could be the guage, but that is extremely rare. i had the same problem as you, i have a 97 gmc sierra (same as Chevy in case you didnt know). the sending unit in the fuel pump is where your problem is. this comes as a 1 peice drop-in pump and you HAVE to buy the whole pump not just the sending unit. There is a fair chance of it being a short between the sending unit and dash guage, but it is also slim.
where is the pcm module located on my 1997 Chevy truck
No, sorry.
bolt pattern for these model smaller chevy's is 5x4.75
my 1997 Chevy k1500 well run fine and then it trips fuel pump relay
If your 1997 Chevy pickup wipers and washer pump are not working, you might actually have to replace the pump motor or the wiper motor, or both. These motors are not expensive to replace and can be purchased at most auto parts stores.
If they are the same engine, it's highly likely the trans will be the same .
fuel sending relay is bad.
Remove the fuse or the relay.
