ok, so im trying to get my car running, (91 coupe, auto). when i turn the key on, the fuel pump isnt kicking on. i checked the fuses, theyre fine. i got a wiring diagram and busted out the multimeter, and im getting voltage to the relay on both hot wires. ok great. but when i turn the key on i dont get voltage out of the green/yellow wire. if i run a jumper wire across the relay, the pump kicks on, so its a bad relay, too easy... right? well i got a new relay, and it did the same thing, no change. maybe that relay is bad too? so i got ANOTHER one, no change. still, if i jump the relay the pump kicks on. if i have a jumper wire across it, the pump kicks on and stays on, and when i go to start it it seems like it starts but when i let off the key it dies instantly, although the pump is still on. so it almost acts as if the computer is shutting it off... which brings me to the next possible scenario. my low oil level sensor is bad, i know for a fact. (the wire came out of it) would this cause a no start? according to every wiring diagram ive looked at, it is no where near the fuel pump circuit, but will the computer not allow the engine to run if this is bad? please help!!!!
thanks, Jason
