I have a 1991 nissan hardbody. The fuel pump is getting power but i am not getting any fuel to the filter

hell they are heavy on fuel but try to pump you tyers harder end maybe drive slowely and change your plugs and air filter but other than that their are nothing els or try to chip it

DIESELS DO NOT START FOR ONLY 3 REASONS.. 1. not getting fuel. 2. Glow plugs not working.. 3 major engine damage
1. air in system.. like you ran out of fuel, Fuel filter clogged, lift pump not working, no fuel in tank, Bad fuel. .. 2. glow plugs..check the wire at the glow plug to see if it has power. If it does not check the relay and fuse. glow plugs usually do not all go bad at one time. 3. major engine damage.. you would normally notice this by the noise the engine makes or it would not turn over..

when restarting a diesel you have to prime it by filling the fuel filter with fuel b4 trying to start engine

YOU HAVE A FUEL FILTER AND A FUEL STRAINER AT FUEL PUMP . HERE'S THE FUEL FILTER AND HOW TO REPLACE.

it has a fuel filter on passenger side of engine and a strainer before the pump inside the tank

the fuel pick-up in the tank has a sock on it to filter out any large debris to keep it from damaging the fuel pump, that sock can become clogged and prevent adequate amounts of fuel from getting to the pump thereby starving the pump

Turn the key to the on position but dont start the car. Get a friend to listen under the car to see if the fuel pump is turning on. It makes a "whirring" noise when functioning properly. Check your fuel pump relay under the hood in the fuse box. If thats not the problem, check your fuel filter and hoses and observe if they need replacing. Hope this helps!

You don't hear it running when your turn the key on just before the crank position.

You have replaced the fuel filter and it was pretty much stopped up. (destroyed pump trying to pump through stopped up filter.)

Because it was going bad you couldn't drive fast because it wasn't pumping enough fuel.

Disconnect fuel line and see if fuel comes out when you turn the key on.

fuel pump and fuel sock is bad replace them but first replace the fuel filter, it's located driverside on the inside of frame rail under door.

Ignition switch???!
