no fuel to 84 hatch

Featured Replies

Hey all ...My 84 hatchback has no power to the fuel pump..I think its the "roll over switch"..Its just above the hood latch,a little blue box...can these be bought or bypassed ? Thank you ,todd

I never had an 84 - but none I had older or newer had a roll over switch.   They do have control that shuts off the fuel pump if the engine stops running.

You can bypass it to test, but I would not leave it bypassed.

When/how did you find out that there’s no power? 

‘84 could be the year where they introduced the fuel cut relay. I’d be looking at this first. It’s a black box behind the kick panel above the driver’s feet. 

I’ve heard they can go bad but I’ve not experienced this myself. 

If your coil dies the fuel pump won’t work either. If your coil dies your ignition module dies too. Got a good coil and ignition module in there?? 

Cheers
