So my 1998 2g gst won't start. The fuel pump doesn't kick on when you turn the key to accessory, and is pumping slow when the key is being turned. However after you finish turning it, it pumps fuel normal for 1-2 seconds and stops. I've checked every fuse, replaced fuel pump relay, replaced fuel pump / filter, check engine light isn't on. Oil pressure light, seat belt, and brake lights are on. It quit running a couple hours after I changed the spark plugs when I was on the highway. The water temperature gauge also was acting up, and the speedometer isn't working. I haven't taken the fuel rail off yet but I'm pretty sure it's getting fuel and spark. I can't take a picture right now but there is one of the green triangle connectors is disconnected. Thing is though, I can't find where it goes and it was running without it plugged in previously. PS, previous owner warned me of MAF sensor going bad.
If anyone would be able to come out and take a look at it, I'm located in Green. I've got plenty of parts laying around you might be interested in, or may possibly receive if you lend a hand. :thumb:
 
ive had trouble with maf sensors in the past my car would start it would just run really choppy and want to cut out alot. I know thats probably isnt much help, maybe you just have a bad connection somewhere.
