Hey guys, looking for some advice regarding a stalling issues with my stock manual 90 GSX.
The has not been ran for approximately 5-ish months, been working long hours and havent had time to take it out for a spin. Finally got some free time and decided to do some maintenance. Replaced the engine oil, oil filter, spark plugs, and valve cover gasket.
The car was jump started, and ran fine at idle for about 10 - 15 minutes. Put the car in reverse and the car died AFTER I stopped giving it gas reversing. First thought was maybe a bad alternator. Attempted to jump start the car again but it would turn over but not turn on. Noticed a loud buzzing sound coming from the "Tail" relay. Checked fuses, disconnected and reconnected the MAF sensor connector, and checked for any diconnected connectors. Nothing out of the ordinary was found. After about another 10-15 minutes, was finally able to start the car again. Checked battery voltage, which read 14.2 V so that ruled a bad alternator. Kept the car idling for another 10-15 minutes, gave it a couple of revs to see if the car would die. The car did not die, it idled perfectly normal. Put the car in 1st gear and when i let go of the gas while moving the car it died immediately.
With the reasearch ive been doing, im leaning towards a bad/clogged fuel pump or filter? Has anyone ran into this issue and knows whats the smoking gun? I cant seem to find the wiring diagram for the fuel pump circuit. Unfortunately time is not on my side with the amount of hours i work, so any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
