It was a joke lol, when i did Ford training my instructer would purposely put bad relays in the car when we had to diagnose no starts just to throw those guys off for not checking the relays the right way.

Here are a few links if they work for you.

Fuel pump power side

Fuel pump itself
http://www.alldatadiy.com/alldata/AF...4232/111602475

Ground 305

If it were me, I would pull the fuel pump relay and jumper it. Which would eliminate the back half of the car.

Swappd fuel filter and nothing...checkd relays nd fuses and all are good.Fuel pressure is at 2psi but I'm almost positive its because of the low amount of fuel.I heard the tank needs atleast 5gal of fuel to create back pressure in the tank?is this true?

My pump has perfect pressure when it has 1-2 gallons left in it.

There's always these, too:


Why don't you just drop the tank and the lines and make sure that nothing is crushed, pinched, or shorted? Try putting +12v to the + side of the fuel pump relay/socket while checking the pressure?

This is using a real floor jack, and not the crappy emergency jack that the car comes with.
