It may have been pure coincidence but disconnecting that green connector under the hood 100% solved the problem. Was able to drive it out of the woods and work on it now.

no, i'm not sure. That one i disconnected was under the steering wheel. But now i'm reading that it's under the hood near the wiper motor. whoops.

I wasn't implying that the running behavior was the cause of the pulsating fuel pump. Quite the opposite, i believe the pulsating fuel pump was that cause of my running problems. I disconnected the bright green connectors and there's no change in the fuel pump operation. Pretty sure the problem is actually an air sensor being disconnected under the hood. PO has the thing half taken apart, i just want to get it in my garage.

Hey just bought a subaru loyale from a crack head and he said the issue with the car was head gaskets. Ofc those are probably bad too but a more interesting issue the car has is during start up. When turning the key on (not crank) i can hear the fuel pump turn on, then off. It will continue to do this for ever. Pump for about a second and a half then turn off. In about 5 second intervals. When cranking the car it will start, rev up to 2k rpms then slowly fade out till it stops running. Is this car not getting enough fuel to sustain the engine? Is it the fuel pump relay?
