Question
i am having the problem of my car not getting the fuel. there is gas in the car
and I sprayed the starter spray and it started but immediately turned off. what
can i do to get it running soon.

Answer
Check for fuel pressure at the fuel rail in the engine compartment.

Fuel pump test:

1. Get yourself a helper.

2. remove the gas cap.

3. have one person listen in the gas tank at the gas cap opening.

4. have the other person turn the ignition switch to the ON position ONLY so as the dash lights come on. Do NOT attempt to start the engine.

5. As soon as the ignition key is turned to the ON position, The person at the gas tank should hear the fuel pump run for TWO SECONDS and then it should STOP.

6. Does it ?.


If you do NOT hear it run, in most cases the fault is the fuel pump relay or the fuel pump..



let me know.
