and i think mabye something got sucked up into
the fuel lines or fuel pump.cuz the motor is not getting any gas
and i took the fuel lines off the motor and tried to turn it over
and no gas come out of the fuel lines.i bought a new fuel filter
and put it on and still nothing.can someone help me?

Can you hear the pump running? If not check the fuel pump relay.
You can make a jumper wire to replace the relay to test pump.
Did fuel run out of the tank when you changed the filter? If so how much?

the fuel accumulator and filter were both full of gas
the pump was the only one i didnt take off.
where can i find the relay at?

Yacht Master

Ok but did any fuel run out of the pump?
any rust come out of filter?
The relay is in the fuse box, I can't remember which one it is.
Chilton's manuals have this information
I think that the pump runs when you first turn on the ignition for a few seconds.
If I remember correctly, you can remove the air cleaner and depress the air flow plate and cause the pump to run also.
Wish I could help find the relay it's been 12 years and I just can't remember.

i did not take the pump off.
just the filter and the accumulator.
and they where both full of gas.no rust at all.
and gas spraying out of the hose that goes
into the accumulator.
i havent ever heard my pump make any noise

Yacht Master

Ok good no rust, and fuel coming out means not plugged in tank.
How much fuel did you put back in the tank?
The fuse box (drivers side under hood) may have information on a paper inside. It may give you a clue to which relay is the fuel pump. I'll do a search and see what I can find.
I think it is a short one in the middle--mean wile you could do a search for a part number for the relay. maby find it that way.

well im low on money so i put 10 in and got 3 1/2 gallons.not much
yah i know where the fuse box is.my fuse d i y is in german,
but i found one in here that is in english.

Yacht Master

Ya 83 500 is euro, grey market, 83 US was 380

Most part stores can get you a Chilton's manual not the best but better than nothing.

On the side of the relay is a diagram of the relay, and a part number.
See if you can bench test the relay.

how do you bench test the relay
