Howdy,

Fuel Pump wasn't working, checked power, power is good. Replaced the fuel pump (low pressure) and still no fuel pumping. Any help on where to start would be appreciated.

Thanks

With a test light you clip the alligator clip to ground and pierce the positive wire near the pump connector with the sharp point of the light. 12V will light the light.

I checked the power of the connector to the fuel pump and the red/yellow wire. had 12v while cranking.

Swapped the relay also and nothing.
