SD fuel problem (no PSI) HELP NEEDED

2006-08-28 Thread Michael Weary
Need some help. Probably simple, but want to make ABSOLUTELY SURE, might be 
missing a trick. Car was running about 8-months ago, and started 
occassionally while parked. I walk to work (2-blocks) and it doesn't get 
used much.


1. I am getting no fuel pressure, tank is full, fuel filter replaced 4-years 
ago (car will not start).
2. Replaced shut-off module (for a better word) with a spare (car will not 
start).
3. Climbed under car, tested fuel pump leads (10.5mVA) across the leads, but 
started to rain, and am not sure as the multi-meter is a problem unit... 
will test again.


Maybe I'm wrong... but it appearsa to be the FUEL PUMP. Any other way or 
suggestions to prove my theory... put in a Walbro about 4-years ago... and 
the car has been setting up/stored... varnished fuel, clogged line, plugged 
filter (even thou fairly new).

You won't have any voltage across the fuel pump leads unless someone is 
cranking the car over.

How about spark, got that? Fault codes, got any? No spark could translate to 
no fuel pressure also since the ASD relay priovides voltage to the coil, fuel 
pump, injectors and the heated O2 sensor and again there will be power here 
only when the car is cranking or running.

Voltage at the coil and pump should be just about battery voltage when the 
car is cranking.

Hope this helps,
