Craigsti Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 i have a 1993 loyale that ive been working on for little over a month and a half . the other day i replaced the fuel pump because it was leaking pretty bad but now the car will only run when you pour gas down the throttle body . im kinda thinking the fuel pressure regulator went out as its getting pressured gas up to the regulator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
man on the moon Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 1--Did it start before you replaced the pump? 2--Is the wire connector thingie coming off the fuel injector plugged into its mate in the wiring harness with a good, clean connection? (Not gummed up) If it's not either of those simple things, and it starts with starter fluid, then we'll cross them off and move on to more involved stuff.

KrakkenSkullz Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 (edited) Are you working on a SPFI or MPFI engine? You can pull the line from the output of the fuel filter where it connects to the intake, put the end of it into a container and hit the key. If the pump is working properly you should have flow from it while the pump operates. If there is no flow then you know you have an issue with your pump. If you have flow then id check the fuel pressure. Edited May 3, 2012 by KrakkenSkullz Grammar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
