took the "S" terminal off my starter and tried to crank fuel pump did not run
I have a 5.7gipmda which has been hard to start since I bought it in March. It will crank until oil pressure builds then start. I got a suggestion from another forum to take off the "S" wire from the starter and see if the fuel pump runs while cranking. What I got was the initial 2 second prime from the pump with the key on not running. when I tried to crank it I heard the starter relay click but the pump did not run. I would imagine the pump should run while cranking the starter. What would cause it not to? I have gotten this far but I do not know what to do next.
