Icon3 my 87 CRX Si has an issue

Well... I just bought it... test drove it on bad gas and ran the tank dry...

SO, added gas... no start... pulled off intake hose, sprayed in TB Cleaner, fires up... runs for about 10 seconds, gets up to about 2k on the RPM's, dies.

Fuel Prime Light comes on... I can hear the pump buzz...

Pulled Fuel line off the filter tried to prime then crank, no fuel comes out....

Safe to say I merked that fuel pump???

I am in the midst of replacing the pump... just wanted some other suggestions...

No fuel flow. Still not enough in the tank, trash in the supply line, in-tank sock filter clogged... The pump may be bad, but I've run mine dry a couple times with no consequences, and for the most part, if these pumps are on, they are working

Fuel pumps are easy on these cars. They are inline fuel pumps. Check to make sure your fuel pump is even getting voltage.
