ok heres the problem
drove & parked my iroc last Nov or so, went to start about 6 weeks ago, she turns over, but will not fire
if i spray starting fluid into the TB, she will try to fire up
so i added gas in case
checked all the fuses- good
replaced the fuel pump relay
checked to see if gas was pumping from the tank to the fuel filter - nothing comes out
checked the fuel pump, by hooking it to a battery, it pumped fuel
so what the heck is going on??
im kinda stumped at this point? |

just start from t he back and move forward. you have allready applied direct 12V to the pump and it worked, so the pump is good. you know the relay is good. so ground the relay to turn the pump, if it does not pump you have a busted wire, get the test light out and start hunting. do you have power at the relay? do you have power on the wire to the pump? are the grounds good?
do you have the wire diagrams for the electrical path all this stuff takes? |
