Great site!
I have a 92 olds silhouette 3.8 it was not starting well when cold so I
replaced the fuel pressure regulator and it did not help, so i drove it
for about 4 months it started running rough on idle when warm recently and
would die while driving on occasion. it finally refused to start. i pulled
th fue line and no gas came out so i relaced the fuel pump and still
nothing. added gas and gauge works, fuses in glove box good. Is there a
relay or other problem I can check if so where and how do i test it??
Thank you
Mike

Thanks for the reply the filter is new, besides I have the line off prior
to the filter and it does not pump gass out the line when i turn the key,
I only hear one click from the pump when i turn the key and it should run
more I believe. I think i located the fuel pump relay under the drivers
side dash and it feels like its clicking when i turn the key ........what
else could it be .. help ???????

You should be hearing more than a "click"... the pump will make a noise but
you might have to be closer to it to hear it. Get someone to turn the key
on while you are very near / underneath the tank. It is probably a pump
failure.
