No Fuel, what to do?
Just to Start off, I have done a search and I know about the main relay and grounding. I have checked both. The main relay looks fine, and I can here it click. I have sanded all grounds( the one that bolts to the transmission, the valve cover, radiator support, and the thermostat housing).
It is a 92 si Stock. I just bought it from a friend who broke a timing belt in it two years ago. It has been sitting ever since. I recently did a complete top end rebuild and put it back together. Now I get no fuel. I have checked the fuel rail where the 12mm comes out, and I get no fuel. I have pulled the lines from the fuel filter and no fuel there either.
Any help????

Sitting that long, does the fuel pump work?
You should be able to hear it click on when you turn the key to where all your dash lights come on. You might not be able to hear it from the drivers seat b/c of all the dings going off from the other systems but someone should be able to hear it if you have your trunk open and listen there.
Oh yeah, just to start at the beginning....you do have gas right? lol
EDIT: wouldn't hurt to go over your fuses too

It worked two years ago. I cant imagine that it would just go out after sitting for two years.
where is the fuel pump located? how is the easiest way to run a jumper wire. I have gas. It is at half a tank. I have also checked all the fuses, ones in the engine bay and under the dash.
Any more help?

Alright I know now that either the pump went bad or it is not getting fuel. I had my girlfriend turn on the car while I listened in the trunk and I heard nothing. Does anybody have any idea's or is there any other fuses or ground wire's that I need to check?
check the wires/connectors that got to the fuel pump, might be chewed throught by rats or squerels. check the wires/connectors in the engine bay that go to the fuel pump, or the ones that are in the car under the carpet behind the drivers side....(i think...not sure). I doubt that it went bad after 2 years of not using it. not possible is it?? gud luk.

when you turn the key to the on position does your check engine light come on for a few sec then go off?
also I believe there is an access panel in the trunk close to the front of the car to get to the fuel pump. the pump is in the tank.

Alright, I have never done this before, I have rebuilt plenty of motor's, but never messed around with the fuel pump. Is there a way to tell if it is bad or test it once I get it out? Is there anything that may go wrong with them that I should be looking for?
