We replaced some rusted fuel lines and now the car won’t start. The fuel pump, I’ve checked for leaks and there is none. What is the problem and how do I fix it? It seems to be a common issue; I see everybody asking but not the right answer.

Can you hear the fuel pump run in the tank when you turn the key on? Also, did you do repairs on the lines or replace the entire fuel line system? It sounds like the fuel pump when out or the fuel pump relay is not working here is how you can test it and if it is okay, I have included the instructions on how to change the pump out. Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.
