N0 p0wer to fuel pump

I have to ask. How long since a tune-up? Are there any applicable trouble codes?
With engine cranking, if no spark at the spark plugs and no fuel injector pulse along with no fuel pump action, have to check rpm signal.
If you have spark and fuel injector pulse but, no fuel pump action, then we check the fuel pump circuit. Did you check applicable fuse, not only check the fuse, check the fuse circuit for voltage. At the fuel pump connector, gray wire is voltage for fuel pump motor and black wire is ground.

Make sure the battery has a full charge.

Are you missing anything besides fuel? Engine cranking visually check for spark at the spark plugs. Also, check for fuel injector pulse. If your missing everything, check for an rpm signal.

With the spider fuel system, start-up fuel pressure can be critical, around 60--66 psi. At the fuel pump connector, engine cranking, gray wire is voltage, black is ground. If good voltage and ground with no fuel pump action, have to suspect the fuel pump.

My car is not starting and thinking it's the fuel pump. Try jumping it and still not go. Alternator and starter are fine. So I've removed the fuel pump from the tank. There's a white connector that...

Four wires the the sender unit. One will have 12 volts all the time with key on. This is the fuel gauge. One will have power for 2 seconds when the key is turned on. This is the fuel pump. Two of them will have a constant ground. Grounds will be black, black with a colored stripe on it, or have a black stripe. Check the harness plug plug for voltage, again it only last for 2 seconds. If you have voltage at the wire. replace the pump. If not, probe the wire about 3 inches back from the plug, check for voltage again. If you have voltage there repair or replace the plug. Most wires break right behind the harness plug.

Gas guage doesnt work

It sounds like a problem with the fuel gauge sender unit in the fuel tank which has worn out and gone open circuit and needs replacing. Access to the unit is usually through a removable plate in the floor in the rear of the vehicle. Disconnect the wiring connector and any hoses and then remove the securing screws. Replacement is done by reversing procedure.
