You didn't say whether it is a DPA or in-line pump but I am guessing it is the latter.

I read somewhere there is partial electronic control of the pump but I think the primary purpose of that is control of the speed parameters though it might or might not include a fuel shut-off solenoid to serve as an engine stop.
Before an injection pump can supply fuel to the injectors it must have a supply of fuel at a sufficient pressure. This could be provided by an electric lift pump or an engine driven diaphragm lift pump or it might be integrated into the injection pump. The flow from the lift pump is obvious when bleeding the air from the injection pump.

Assuming there is a good supply of air-free fuel to the injection pump and the fuel cut-off solenoid is energised and working and all the air has been bled from the injection pump, injection fuel should after a few revolutions be emitted from the injection pump elements.
If it does not, it is time to call on specialist knowledge...

SOURCE: no power tp the fuel pump, injectors not pulsing, no fuel.

Check out your oil sending unit, fuel pump and relay, check for power (might be a fuse), the ignition control module (which if you remove it, can be tested for free at AUTO-ZONE), any related wiring, pick-up coil (inside the distributor), and possibly the ignition switch. If I can be any more help just as away.

SOURCE: SANDERSON TELEPORTER,

Perkins is a hard engine to prime. Fill the fuel filter with clean diesel, there should be a hand pump on the left side(looking at the front of the vehicle) . There should be a bleed screw on top of the filter housing. Loosen the bleed srew and pump the hand pump untill you get a steady stream of fuel from it. Tighten the bleed screw. Loosen the injector bonnet nuts approximately 1 1/2 turns on all of the injectors. Turn the engine over until you see a steady stream of fuel from the the injector bonnets. Tighten the bonnet nuts, pump the handpump approx 10 times and start the engine. Give it half throttle until it stops stumbling and all of the air is worked out of the system.

What is the function of the fuel pump and ignition coil pack for my 92 ls 400 lexus

The fuel pump pumps the fuel from the fuel tank under pressure up to the fuel rail and injectors.
The coil packs provide a electrical charge (about 40,000 volts) to the spark plugs. It is this charge that makes the spark plug spark.

1996 Lexus 400 where fuel reset

To answer your question specifically it would be no. There
is no inertia switch that feeds the fuel pump that can be turned off or reset . The engine control computer turns on a series of two different relays to control power to the fuel pump. When in the start position the circuit opening relay and the fuel pump relay or both energize causing the fuel pump to run at full pressure or fast speed. From there the engine control computer determines which demand is on the fuel pump and either turns off the fuel pump relay and leaves
the circuit opening relay on to supply power through a resistor to slow the pump down for less demand. The EFI main relay is the main supply relay to both of these sub relays. The fuel pump is powered up ultimately by the 20 amp EFI number one fuse. All of these components are located in the fuse box under the hood. If the circuit opening relay is not working it's powered up by the 10 amp
ignition fuse inside the vehicle. It's unlikely it is the 10 amp ignition fuse because that powers up a lot of other things also.

MF 135 3 cylinder Perkins motor. The engine sounds to be missing when under no load; under load she sounds to be firing satisfactorily. The injectors have been serviced and are said to be fine. The

Any engine runs better doing what its built for, but it should not be very noticeable. If you are familiar with this engine, then I would tend to go with your instincts. The injector timing is a likely cause and could be supplying more fuel than you need creating a laboured combustion which evens out under load.
Perkins parts were found everyware around western Australia 20 years ago and were cheap, I'm a bit out of touch on that aspect these days, but they are worth the effort, you should try to find some old school farmers around to speak with, they often have golden and unique solutions.

Having problems with fuel;air in lines and fuel not getting to injectors on924g cat loader

If its the perkins engine, I have had problems with fuel cavitating in the delivery pump, and also with the fuel filter housings leaking allowing the fuel system to suck air. I know its not good practice but after filling the filters with fuel and using engine start (ether) to start our machine I didn\'t have any problems for a while as long as the machine was run at least every couple of days.

Perkins DTA530E/1306CE87 250KVA generator set. Fault is when the unit is started it works for few minutes and the engine cuts off.

Maybe it causes by the following problems:

Fuel System Failure

1. Air in the fuel system
This is a common problem that a diesel generator fails to start normally.
Solution: Check whether the fuel oil pipe connector is loose or not, and ensure that the air is cleared from the fuel system. Loosen the bleed screw bolt on the diesel filter, and then use the manual oil pump to pump the fuel until the air bubble is gone.
2. Fuel Line Obstruction
Solution: Check whether the pipeline is smooth or not.
3. Fuel Filter Clogging
Solution: Clean the filter or replace the filter element
4. The Handle Position of Fuel Injection Pump Is Not Correct
Solution: The handle position should be pushed to no-load when starting the diesel generator set. Rotation speed is about 700-900r/min.
5. Fuel Injector Problem - Little fuel injection or fuel injection is not atomized
Solution: Remove the fuel injector, connect it to the high pressure oil pump, pry the fuel injection pump plunger spring and observe the spray condition. If necessary, wash the injection pump.
6. Oil Supply Problem - Oil transfer pump doesn't supply oil or the oil supply is brokenly.
Solution: Check whether the oil inlet pipe is leaked or not and the filter screen on the oil inlet pipe connector is blocked or not.

My 2001 Saturn, will start but not stay running. We have checked the fuel pump and all fluids. Did a compression check this morning, fuel injectors are not injecting fuel into fuel rail. Why is engine...

You said, 'fuel injectors are not injecting fuel into fuel rail' but it's my understanding that the fuel rail gasoline is supplied by the pump, and the fuel injectors just pulse to allow fuel to get to the cylinders. I would check out the fuel delivery problem further. Check for pressure in the fuel rail that is within specs.

If not, then the pump or fuel pressure regulator may be the problem. Check the fuse for the fuel pump. If good, then the pump may be bad in the tank.

Good luck on this.

Fuel pump- 2002 GMC Sierra

The fuel sending unit only controls the gas guage not the fuel supply to the vehicle. The pump is twelve volts. If you are not getting twelve volts on the PUMP wires check the fuel pump relay and the key circuit to it. If you have to cycle the key three to four times rapidly to get the vehicle to start check the fuel pump pressure at the regulator for manufacturer specs. An injector stuck open will also cause same problems you are describing.
