You need to replace the fuel pump relay, also check the connector right at the pump, hi resistance could cause the connector to over heat and short circuit. The fuel pump relay is located under the hood near the fire wall. for exact location you need to follow this link. https://www.2carpros.com/kpages/auto_repair_manuals.htm ...plus you must use a AC Delco pump. Any after market pump is inferior. :D thanks for visiting 2carpros.com

the only way it runs is if i feed it. but yes it does have pressure. but also when you turn key on , no power to the pump, so i hot wired the pump to get the thing home. but still no run.
