Classic/Antique Car Repair: 82 vette fuel pump, fuel pump relay, fuse block


Question
i think my fuel pump is bad....no fuel is comming out of the injectors...and when i turn the key..i don't hear the pump pumping...is there a way to check it

Answer
There is a relay and a fuse in the system. The first step is to check the fuse in the fuse block for the fuel pump and the one for the injectors. If that does not do the trick locate the fuel pump relay and running from one of the terminals there should be a brown wire that is not plugged into anything. You can run a jumper from this to the battery + and it should energize the pump
