replace fuel pump or not?

[bobgeorge]

a few days ago my car started running like a tractor, i thought it had jumped time, it hadn't, i checked the spark fine, checked relay and all related things that would not make it start, checked ecu, so i jump wired it and it came on,so i turned it to the on position to see if i could hear the pump, nothing, so i took a towl and rapped it around the fuel filter, the filter is a month old, so i could see if fuel was coming out of the filter,nothing, so i used a jumper wire and gas was flowing fine, i checked every conection on the fuel sytem and it all had good voltage, i just do not want to buy a fuel pump, if it could be something else,

run a power/ground to your fuel pump, that will tell you if it is working or not. You should be able to hear it if everything else in the car is off.

If you have a 1g use the check wire behind the battery

Sounds more like a coilpack my friends car ran like #### when the pack went out.. The car had 1/4 of the power it had before and would not idle verry well... Dont know if I helped or just made things worse but I hope you find the problem...
P.S his car is a 1G GST>>>>>>>>
