If the high pressure pump is not working, will the tank pump still work ? I don't hear any of the usual "whirring" or fuel returning to the tank when key is on.
Question 2. If I apply 12v to the inertia switch wire, will it feed back & energize the pump(s) ? Would this also rule out a bad relay ? I can't get to the connector to jump wire it without dropping the tank.
This should be fairly easy 'cause I replaced the tank and lo pressure pump about 5 years ago (never seize on all bolts.) Shouldn't a pump last longer than that ? Ethanol poisoning ? Not sure what's up... been running good & suddenly died in the driveway.
