Car stalled on me this morning. When I tried to restart, the fuel pump would not turn on so no luck with the start. Towed it home and checked it out. It is a 73 2.0 with FI.
The pump runs when I jumper directly to the battery. I have continuity from pump connector to the #13 pin on the relay board. If I jumper from the fuse to the #13 pin, the pump comes on. The fuse is good. I have replaced the main power relay and the fuel pump relay with known good ones. With the ignition on, when I remove and reseat the main power relay, I can feel the relay click but I do not hear the injectors click nor do I hear the fuel pump start (I got this test from Dr. 914's Tech Tips). On the fuel pump relay socket, I have power at the 30 pin and also the 85 pin. When I jumper to the 87, it does not turn on the fuel pump. I don't know if it is related, but I have the same problem with the heater blower relay also. I jumpered 30 to 87 and I do not have power. I am not sure but I think the car died when I had the heater blower running. I'm stumped. What do I check next? |
