Fuel issue

[junebug davis]

Here's the issue.....my car has been sitting for over a year with very little gas in it due to a blown turbo. I finally replaced the turbo and started the car and it fired up. It was started a few more times while I completed a few finishing repairs. I decided to put some new gas in it and start it again, but this time I forgot it was in first gear and my car stalled. When it stalled it jerked forward pretty hard and now it won't start. The fuel pump is not turning on. I thought maybe it was a shut off feature that most cars have but Ive read through the forums and realized DSM's do not have this feature. Is it possible that my fuel pump or its relay just happened to go bad. It sounded like it was starting normal until it stalled and it was running fine the day before. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

The fuel pump is definitely not turning on?? Pull off the feed line to your fuel rail and insert it into a bottle of some sort that can take a little fuel. Just turn the key to where the fuel pump triggers and see if it works, then immediately turn it back off. You don't need to crank the engine, just flip to acc. If your seeing no fuel, then there is your problem. Could be any of these: Fuse, Fuel Pump, Pump Filter, Fuel Filter, wiring. If you do see fuel, then it could be clogged injectors or injector harnesses. I did a whole engine rebuild cause I though my engine was shot, when three out of the four injectors were clogged. If you're getting fuel to the cylinders, then it's back to basics: air, spark, compression. PM me with any questions.
