So, it turns over okay, correct? When you turn the key on without cranking the engine over do you hear the fuel pump run in the tank? Also, you say I rebuilt the fuel pump; you mean the electric one in the tank? Here are two guides to help us see what's going on. I have seen the fuel pump relay stop the engine from starting in these cars. I will leave instructions in the diagrams below for your car.
