Calling you in the morning to set something up, Don. Will be working all week and best day looks like some time this weekend. Will talk more tomorrow morning.

My scan tool unfortunately isn't anything more than a scanner. And the fp gauge I wanted isn't in stock anymore, so gotta find another one and get it tee'd into the nos cutoff switch.

For fuel pressure you just take off the nitrous and hook up the gauge/line for testing.

Correct gotta pull the shrader valve and put line at end of fuel rail and since your bigmac put some special sauce on it!

Lol, yeah dry kit and schrader valve was removed to put the nos cutoff switch on it already. Car was fine in colder weather, but now it warmed up a bit its acting up. Gonna call don when I get a chance. It's been a madhouse here at work and dealing with a buyout of my company.

It has a safety pressure switch as he said. Part of the dry kit.

Ok, so anybody know where/what the prime relay for the fuel pump is located on these sleds? Only one I could find was on the drivers side behind the kick panel, but I pulled that relay and turned on the ignition and didn't hear anything. Car started normally, so obviously that wasn't it. Pulled the underhood relay and the car died out. Turned the key off and replaced the underhood relay. Left the relay from the kick panel unplugged and turned on the key, and the pump primed. So that definitely wasn't the one. Anybody know what it looks like and the actual location of it?

This pic is from the drivers side kick panel. See the green wire? Follow that up and you will see the connector block. The second is the relay, the wiring is wrapped as the original wiring harness is in the car.

Relay

ILuvPizzaTimes10 01-16-2013 01:58 AM

pretty sure thats just the vats cut off relay. fuel pump is fired from a seperate relay. that one just cuts if activated. i believe the fuel pump relay is on the pass side kinda near the center console. under that big stupid black plastic cover with foam on it! gunna say though 90% of the time it aint it. but if you want it just to check for voltage?

Fuel pump relays usually just die and stop working. More than likely you have a lazy sensor somewhere. Makes the car run shitty but not bad enough to set a code. If fuel pressure was bad the car would throw lean codes.
