Fuel pump relay

Hey all,

not necc a 3rd gen question, but chevy nontheless. You guys have helped me out in the past so Ill throw a neew one at ya...

How common/uncommon is it for a fuel pump relay to go bad?

For obvious price reasons, Im hoping its that, not F/P, which doest prime or energize when key on.

1998 Blazer if needed!

Thanks....

Scott

NOT VERY OFTEN, BUT YOU CAN JUST HARD-WIRE(BYPASS) TO FIND OUT FOR SURE.

Fuel pump relay isn't that expensive($15 to $35)depending on where you buy it.If the wiring on your '98 Blazer is like my '95 Jimmy(GM changed the harness but I'm not sure if it was in '98 or '99)the relay is in the glovebox.And if the wiring is the same there are 3 relays in the glovebox that interchange to see if the fuel pump relay is the problem.
