I just changed the fuel pump and the fuel filter last month and it's a higher pump because I am planing on putting a cam and bigger injectors and building my heads. And I checked to see if I had fuel even tho it reads 1/2 I went by the k.I.s.s method and eleminated some stuff.

Try disconnecting the rubber elbow at the throttle body and squirt a little raw fuel in there...then, start it...if it firres right up you have fuel starvation if not you have a weak spark.

Thanks everyone for the help. But it was the hose on my fuel pump inside my tank that came off haha. But now I know some more stuff about my car. Thank you everyone that helped.

I asked you twice if you had checked your fuel pressure, and others did to, but basically, you seemed to ignore all of us.

I don't have a gauge to test it. But I figured it did since it was runnin. My bad I wasn't ignoring you on purpose. But still thanks for the help.

The only way to prove the pump is good is with a gauge. Anyone who works on a modern car needs a fuel pressure test gauge in the toolbox. That, a multimeter and a scanner will help diagnose/troubleshoot most problems.

If I read your posts correctly, at this point its NOT runnin(g). Look at post #18. Did you consider that possibility?

In any case, if several people suggest that you check the fuel pressure, rather than not respond at all, simply say "I don't have a gauge". That way we will know that you aren't going to check the pressure, and we can move on to another person's problem.

Ok *** hole. I get. You don't have to make fun of the way I talk. And you don't have to keep being a sower puss "Fred" I didn't have a gauge so I did do what one of them said and poored some fuel in it.
