okay my car died while i was driving and when i tried to start it i noticed my fuel pump wasn't priming and usually i can cause i have a walbro 190 and it's usually hella loud and not nothing. i checked for spark and had spark so that ruled out the dizzy. i decided to replace the main relay with a new one and still nothing, fuel pump still doesnt prime. i checked the grounds and all and everything seems to be okay. i have been searching online for 2 days to see what it is but no luck. does anybody know what the problem is? if everything i checked is good does this mean it's the fuel pump? thanks

can you hear the main relay click on/off as if it 'wants' to prime the pump? check for voltage going to the pump.

 

no i dont hear anything from the main relay. i did when it first died but ever since then nothing.

 

are u getting power to the fuel pump? check that. Maybe ur fuel pump just died. it happens

 

i have a stock fuel pump and i cant hear it allso but it works. Before i use to be able to hear the relay and pump. KNow cant hear any thing do you know what that means is it about to go bad or what.

 

if your fuel pump doesn't humm and theres no little click at the main relay that means your main relay is dead, kick it if you need to drive or move your car, but replace asap

 

that is so weird, my rex starting hesitating today while driving. With the accelerator fully pressed down the car started bucking (or hesitating I guess is a better word right?), also died just after starting while backing up 2 mins before. I have replaced my main relay and hear the clicking so OP I think are fuel pumps are slowly dying.
What's weird is this happened right after I did my B16 swap, I thought it was related to the motor/injectors though.

How many miles do you have OP? I have over 250K probably on fuel pump, still haven't checked it though.

OP do you have a kill switch for your fuel pump?

 

check your rotor dizzy and get a new rotor and cap Distubutor. That can cause same problems like you are having it does it when it get hot.

^^^ LOL this actually works.

My car wouldnt start at the parts store once.. a mechanic guy walks up and asked my geeked-out-office-clothed-self if i need some help with anything. I kicked the dash, started the car and said, "no thanks bud"..

 

yea hold the key to on and Smack the dashboard where the hood pop lever is.

Take it off later and solder it or get a new one.
