It went from working fine, to fuel pump wont prime... In no time
Everything was working fine except I had a small water pump leak.
So I replaced the water pump and now when I try to start her up the fuel pump does not kick in like it used to.
She does crank very nicely.
Can anyone think of anything that I might have damaged while replacing the water pump?

To whom it may concern:
I fixed the fuel pump issue. My fuel pump became disconnected and the harness was laying on the top of the rear differential. I still don't know how the fuel pump harness came undone because I was working on the water pump and it is nowhere near the fuel pump. I backed the car into my garage weeks (apparently the fuel pump just happened to disconnect itself inside my garage after I put it in park!) ago to start working on the water pump.... im going to chalk it up to an ACT OF GOD.
