Unhappy Mechanical Assistance for My Baby Needed Plzzzz!!!

Hi Guys,

I just had new fuel pump installed. I killed the old one by running out of gas way to much. However installed new pump and replace the battery and she will not start. I can hear her trying to turn over but never started. Prior to the fuel pump going out there were no problems with her at all. I still have power through the car, so I'm not sure if its the starter. I would appreciate any suggestions.

Can you here the fuel pump run when you put the ignition in the run position? If not check your fuel pump fuse. If it runs, I'd look at the fuel filter it may be clogged

+1 on the fuel filter. Could also be fuse or relay. The pump should run for about 2 seconds when the key is turned to the run position. This is to prime the system. If you do not hear the pump run, you'll have to check power at the pump while someone cycles the key. Let us know what you find.

Did you put the wires on the fuel pump correctly? Also like everyone else said check all fuses. John

Smile Stater now. Fuel pump resolved ..

Hi Guys,

Thanks for your help. Everything is good with fuel pump. My fuel gage is working properly. Turns out the fly wheel on the stater is stuck and now all I hear is a clicking noise when I try to start her, I'm getting it taken out to be tested tomorrow. Hopefully I can get it rebuilt fingers crossed and prayers up! xoxoxo bimmergirl
