Re: [DML] Fuel pump , Lack of power

[dherv10@xxxx]

Chris, When you turn the key on does the fuel pump run for a second and shut 
off. Then when you try to start the car does the RPM relay contacts close. If 
they don't then the pulse coil area may be the place to look. The RPM relay 
won't turn on unless it sees a pulse from the pulse coil in the ignition 
distributor. Then the relay inside the RPM relay will close and there goes 
power to the pump. 
Intertial switch connections also give trouble on the ground circuit side.

<< I'm sure I read recently, a post concerning "lack of electrical power " 
to
the fuel pump. I've changed all the usual relays etc, but it is still dead
at the connector at the fuel pump.
If I bridge in a live wire, the pump runs, as does the buzzing thingy in the
engine compartment. My question is, where is a dirty pug or contact between
the power supply and fuel pump? I've tried to search the archives before
and get hopelessly lost! Can someone help or give me the direct link please?
