No fuel from pump 97 sunfire 2.2L
Sunday, November 12, 2006 3:24 PM
My sunfire would not start this morning.Checked spark and it was good. Had a friend spray gas into throttle body and car will run untill you stop spraying. Checked fuse. Its good. Replaced Relay with a new one and still no fuel. Thinking bad fuel pump. I droped the tank and installed a new fuel pump and filter. Still no fuel pressure. I checked the body wire harnes by the pump and only have power at one pin. Is this correct? What else am I missing?
Thanks for any help.

Hey not to hijack your thread, but you said you replaced the pump and filter - did you have to replace the whole sender assembly and everything, or just the pump? I ask because for my 03 you have to pay like $250 for the whole unit and I'm looking for alternatives.

Things to try: Turn the key to "on" does the fuel pump come on (prime)?
If no, you have a bad electrical connection to the pump you need to hunt down.
If yes, you SHOULD be getting fuel pressure, and it might be time to hook up a OBD diagnotic setup to see if it's doing something odd. To double check the fuel pressure, you can hook up a gauge near the pump if you still have it out of the car. Could be a bad fuel pressure regulator.
