its in the tank, i would also check your fuel pump relay and fuses before you go through the trouble of doing the fuel pump

 

Thanks. Do you know where the power distribution box is? I think that's where the FP fuse is on my truck.

 

I honestly dont know, i would look under hood first, then in each of the foot wells under the dash kinda kick panel area....

 

I found it. It was under the hood on the driver's side by the firewall. Said "Power Distribution Box" on it :-) Fuse and relay are both fine. Couldn't tell if the relay was working so I temporarily replaced it with the horn relay. Still nothing.

If I could only start up the truck to get it to a shop.......UGH

 

you can also check the wires at the top of the fuel tank and make sure one isnt broken or something obvious

 

do you have 1 or 2 tanks? if 2 then are both pumps not working?

 

The rear tank went about 2 years ago and I never use it. I think it has a crack in it.

 

Those terms are synonymous. Yours apparently isn't "firing".NO! You don't replace anything until you diagnose it, and it fails. At this point, you haven't even confirmed that power is reaching the pump. Crawl under & connect a meter or 12V test light so you can see it while you cycle the key to RUN.

Click my black Bronco in my signature & read the captions in the '90-96 Fuel System album, especially the 1st diagram that shows how to force the relay to stay on.Yes, that's VERY uncommon. It's common for the contacts inside the switch to get dirty, but they don't actually trip.



It's very easy to unplug the switch & install a jumper temporarily in the connector to bypass it for testing.

 

Steve83 - You're right, the truck isn't firing. I think my pump is in-tank so how do i check that power is being supplied to it?

I broke down and had it towed to the shop boys. Bringing the bikes on the trails this weekend and need my baby purring.

I'll update this thread with the diagnosis and the damage.

 

Turns out there was no pressure from the fuel pump....so 500 beans later my truck is back on the road. Thanks for your help/comments.

 

so your plug change was successful after all

glad you got it running again
