92 Bird wont start

About 3 weeks ago car was running fine until on my way home it started stumbling....i assumed it was low on gas and fueled up (stuck gas gauge too). It started fine and drove well, got home and parked. Wife drove the car next and noticed the stumbling about 20 mins into her trip, then the car promptly died. Now when i get in all the lights come on like normal but will not even turn over. I do not hear the fuel pump....nothing. igintion swith was replaced last year when it died on me when driving, but at least then it would turn over....Im stumped...any ideas????

If you don't even hear the fuel pump do the 2 second prime you probably killed the pump bye running out of gas. you need to start ot the fuel pump relay and see if you have power for the 2 sec prom or while cranking should be pin E of the fuel pump relay a gray wire.

Re: 92 Bird wont start

do you have power going down to the purple wire on the starter solenoid? battery surface charge good? as well as the terminal connections ?

Re: 92 Bird wont start

a bad battery or a charging system will mess with the pw of the injectors.
