1992 Ford Taurus I was in a collision now my fuel pump will not run!

Ok first of all I have been an auto mechanic for years so im actually just looking for a quick fix. So ill tell ya what i've all ready tried.My air bag did deploy. And the fuel shutoff switch was not triggered. So i do not need to push the fuel reset switch. Now what i am wondering is if maybe a relay or maybe the lick itself just may have torn up the fuel pump?? I am going to turn on my key and make sure i have power to the fuel pump wires next. If i do i will know i just need a fuel pump.But honestly the only thing i can think of is if the airbag deploying caused this by shutting something off like a relay or if the impact just tore the fuel pump up internally

SOURCE: Ford Focus seatbelt locked

There is a gas cylinder that tightens the belt in a minor collision, it is a one time use part it is independent of the air bag deployment system, you will have to replace the seat belt gas cylinder, that may mean a new belt assembly, not sure on focus.

easy fix.
the drivers airbag comes with the steering wheel. To remove it, snap off the plastic cover at the bottom of the steering wheel. there will be a screw which you need to remove. You will be unscrewing it for quite some time and the wheel will only wobble but eventually it will come off. Disconnect the wires. To replace, put the new steering wheel on trying to align the pin and screw it back in. don't forget to connect the wire. To remove the passenger side, open the glove compartment, squeeze both sides of the back to let the glove compartment fully open. There are 3 nut that you need to remove and a wire. To replace, just do the opposite.
Most likely, you will have to replace the airbag control module also. On this particular year and model, it is located behind the storage compartment below the radio. To remove, unscrew 4 screws (2 on each side of the compartment), disconnect the 12v lighter plug and remove. The computer is located in the very back and has 3 nuts holding it down. There is an arrow on it pointing to the front of the vehicle. Remove the nuts, unplug the wires and get a computer which has the exact same code as yours.
Sometimes, (as was in my case) when the airbag went off, my seatbelts went off and locked in place. To replace, remove the plastic cover off of where the seat belt slides through (near the top of the door post) and unscrew the nut then remove/move aside the plastic trim and unscrew 1 bolt below the seatbelt roll and remove. The last bolt is located between the seat and door. Pick up the carpet and unscrew.

wiring check should be done first (pin to pin) especially the wire leading to the crankshaft sensor behind the engine dumper pulley

2008 ford escape won't fill with gas, the pump clicks off after less that 1/2gallon of gas added

You have a high pressure fuel pump in the tank the engine must be off when fueling and you must run the pump slow because the force of the flow causes the pump to click off also when you turn the gas cap to remove it do you here any noise a swoosh sound and is the cap very hard to turn to loosen it if so your getting vapor lock and your fuel pressure regulator is bad but it just might be the high flow pressure from the gas pump try another gas station and again run it slow if the same thing happens investigate the fuel stem this is where you put the gas in but at the tank side check the rubber hose it maybe bent was the car in a rear end collision that you know if? If so the tank could be misaligned causing the bending of the stem/hose post back with more info ok and I'll get you there I just need you to go through the process of elimination and I'm a taxi mechanic in NYC with 50 years experience in all fazes of automotive repairs collision work to ok remember that I'm not there at the vehicle so you need to be my eyes and ears ok thanks Stephen

I have an 1992 ford taurus with waterpump problems it is an v6 where is the water pump

Go to an auto supply store and purchase a repair manual for your year and model of vehicle, there are several different manuals haynes, sheldons, etc.... ask the clerk at the supply shop which one he would recommend, the manuals run 30 to 50 dollars, or you can search online for instant download of a shop manual. If you cannot afford a professional mechanic that is the best advice I can offer, if you have any doubts about what you are getting into after reading the manual please consult a mechanic. Thanks for your rating on my answer and if I can help any further please reply.

Where is the eec part on the ford taurus 1992 im looking for the feul relay system

I am not sure, but I believe the fuel pump relay on most Ford's is in the trunk, above the fuel pump.
There is an inertial switch that shuts off if bumped, and you have to manually push a button to reset it.

1992 ford explorer (normally runs very well) sat for a few weeks in winter. then would not start. even after charge up. later check with ether, it ran until ether used up and quit. I dont have test...

so, the problem is you're not getting fuel to the injectors. to check that the pump is running, simply turn the key to the on position and listen for the pump motor. have someone listen at the fuel tank. if the pump runs, the fuel lines or filter might be clogged. also, there is most likely a fuel pump relay. locate it, probably in the engine compartment in the power distribution box; and while turning the key to the on position, have someone listen for the relay to click there is also a fuel pump cut-off switch to de-energize the pump in the event of a collision. check to ensure it is not tripped. it can be reset by pushing the red button.

Mechanical difficulties

sounds like a clogged fuel filter or a fuel pump that is not delivering enough volume .. they had some trouble with fuel pumps about that year but not sure on the f150 .. if you let the fuel level get too low then it would overheat and damage the fuel pump ... here is instructions on testing the fuel pump.:
