1999 Saturn SL2 DOHC Engine - Fuel pump not pumping fuel.

Got into my Saturn SL2 and it would not crank. No fuel was being pumped by the fuel pump (180,000 miles - original fuel pump). Checked fuses -- ok, replaced the fuel pump and fuel filter. Fuel pump is still not pumping fuel. Hi All.  I have the same problem Some days, my car cranks fine and starts up just fine.  Some days, it cranks but won't start. Fuel filter has been replaced. Fuel pump can be heard pumping fuel when it cranks fine. Fuel pump can not be heard when it cranks but won't start. Help! Is the fuel pump going bad or could it be the fuel pump relays or the fly valve?

    I'm sorry to hear about the problem you're experiencing with your fuel pump. I would imagine there are places online where you could look up replacement fuel pump modules, or even a new pump itself. I am not an expert in auto repair at all, but I imagine this could be a good place to start. http://www.abcoautomotive.com

Just switch them around they are bot the same and see if the fuel pump runs now also the fuel pump fuse is in there i can't send diaagrams on fixya because their program will not let them go through if you need one email me at [email protected] Please give me a fixya rating if this information is helpful to you

SOURCE: 1997 saturn sl2 dohc is there a timing belt or chain on it

These engines have a timing chain, not a belt. They also have nylon coated guides under the cover that wear. If you change the chain yourself, or have it done, check the guides as well.

Have a saturn sl2 98 that will drive for about 1 to 2 miles and turn off
Does it crank and not start after that? If so it is your fuel pump. That year model was known to have some fuel pump issues. Also the crankshaft position sensor can cause this same problem. If the rpm gauge goes erratic when it is turning off it is most likely the crank sensor.

Got a Saturn SL2 that has been sitting fo awhile. Started it three months ago and it started just fine. Tried it today at it cranks but does not fire. Poured gas into throttle body and it runs until the...
Did you listen to see if the pump is actually pumping.You should here the pump on initial turn of the key.Have someone turn the key and listen for the pump to come on.If the fuse blew for the fuel pump its very possible that the pump is bad or a ground wire is loose.But it sounds like your pump is bad.

My 1999 Saturn SL2 started theother day but a few
This is probably a faulty fuel pressure regulator. You can rent a tool at most auto part stores that connects to the fuel rail to show you the pressure level. If it is low (less than @40 PSI) or if it fluctuates very much, replace the regulator. It is also a good idea to replace the fuel filter, as it can clog and prevent adequate fuel supply from reaching the engine. You may want to replace the filter first, as it is usually cheaper.

94 Saturn sl2 won't start
try getting a small bucket and pulling off the fuel line that runs to the engine and have some one crank the car over and give it fuel to see if anything come out of the fuel line. if it doesnt then eaither a line is blocked or the pump is not working.
