Ok,first I did a search but no hits... I have bought a 92 Z28 tpi car that was flipped on its top...now when I turn the key on I don't here the fuel pump kick on...I was wondering if the thirdgens have a breaker type saafety switch to shut off the fuel in case of a rollover??any ideas would be helpful...it also has a python alarm on it,would this affect it?

Yea, though I walk through the valley of rice, I shall fear no turbo,
For torque art with me;
Thy rod and thy piston they comfort me.
Thou preparest a track for me
In the presence of my enemies;
Thou hast anointed my bearings with oil;
My car overpowers.
Surely traction and victory shall follow me,
All the days of my life,
And I shall dwell in the house of the V8,
Forever...

and what relavance does this have ot do with anything he asked. MAYBE he bought it for the drive train and wats to see how it runs before he puts anymore time into removing it all etc.
or nybe he is gonna fix the car.
to the op: check out the links above. Our cars DONT have a breaker like others.
1st. Id check the relay see if its cycling on with the key. Then work your way back to the fuel pump. have a multi meter check for power, etc.. Good luck.
any pictures of the poor car?

you hit it on the nose,I bought it for the drivetrain and to share the good parts with fellow thirdgenners,instead of it going to the scrapper..
I wanna hear it run before I dive into it...
pix coming
looks like it held up fairly well for being upside down good to see someone gutting it and letting it live on by the way where are you located garyberg just like to keep a list of bird people for future reference and your also a pennsylvanian
If the pump is dead jumping the ALDL wont do anything. Give it a shot. Use a jumper lead from the fuse box 12v to terminal G on the aldl. ( bottom left on aldl)
If that doesnt work you can always cut the fuel line and run a extermal pump and hose into a gas can for now. That will let ya start ot up. Been there done that before.
