Is my fuel pump bad?
So I’ve been having problems starting my car at first it would take a while cranking to start and now after replacing the OVP and cleaning up the Fuel Pump Relay it will start but not stay running unless I’m giving it gas.
So now Im pretty sure it’s a fuel problem and I suspect it’s the pump cause I don’t really hear the pump when I turn the key almost all the way, I just hear a winding noise a few seconds after I turn the key for like a second if that and I’ve heard it’s supposed to be for like 4 seconds so kinda thinking it’s the fuel
Also sometimes when it’s running and you put it into gear it will stall too
if anyones had anything similar please let me know what you had to do or if you’ve got an idea, thanks!
