I've researched some of the other posts on this subject and I believe the fuel pump went out in the car. A little history of the car, it has not been driven in over a year and has been sitting in outdoor covered parking for 9 months, a garage for the last 3 months. When I crank the car it does turn over without problems, but will never completely turn on. We poured a little gas into the vaccum line running into the intake, the car cranked for a brief 1/2 second or so.
There was roughly 1.5 gallons of gas in the tank, I did not use any stabilizer. When I turn the key in the On position I do not hear the pump turning on like I had in the past, but I do hear 1 click shortly followed by another click in the engine bay.
The fuse is good, so I went to the trunk and the switch is pressed in like normal. I am getting 6.9v from each side of the switch when the key is in the On position. So it seems the switch is getting power, so the relay and switch itself are good. Is there anything else left to check before determining that the fuel pump needs to be replaced?
