Loki Posted April 27, 2006 Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 I can get my 91 GP SE 3.4 running briefly with starter fluid but its apparent that i'm not getting any fuel. I'm not hearing the fuel pump starting either. Should I have a wire tucked in somewhere under the pump relay mount? If so and the pump starts after jumping it then the relay is bad, correct? If the pump doesn't start then thats most likly the problem? Do I have to drop the tank to replace the pump or can I access it through the trunk? Before I forget, the fuses are good. Any help is appreciated, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremy Posted April 27, 2006 Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 if you can hear the pump when you jump the wire it is just the relay and yes you do have to drop the tank to replace the pump. There is a write up in the FAQ, and I have done this a couple of times if you have any questions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted April 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 Thanks, I'm gonna check it out later today. This is just a $100 car and I'm hoping for just a bad relay but how likely is that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not very. You didn't mention mileage, but if it's anything north of 100k, you're entering the area where pumps start to fail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted April 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 DAMN IT DAMN IT DAMN IT DAMN IT!!!!!!!! Now that I got that out of my system! It's the fuel pump. Gonna buy a Walbro 255 after I move this weekend. My car has 162k on it so I really wasn't expecting too much out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
