Heres the story...
for the past 2 months my car (93' gsr hatch) has been at a body shop. About a month ago I checked on it, and started it up just to run it (no problems). Yesterday I go to pick it up, and the battery is dead. We push the car out of the garage and jump it... and the car just cranks and cranks.. but won't start.
I do some diagnosing and discover that the fuel pump isn't working (I don't hear it running when I turn the key, and I'm not getting fuel pressure). So this morning i rush over to summit and pick up a new 190 lph fuel pump and drop it in. Still, no fuel pump noise or fuel pressure. I then realize that its probably the main relay. I pulled the relay, and jump the fuel pump's wires on the relay harness, and I get fuel pump noise, and its got pressure! Thinking I solved it, I went to a local junk yard and got a main relay. I plugged it in, and again got fuel pressure, but the damn thing still cranks and cranks!
I checked all the fueses and main grounds on the engine. I hope that I am just overlooking something stuid. Any ideas? It just seems strange that my main relay and ????? would go bad at the same time
