Put new fuel pump in 87 buick grand national now it will not turn over

  • Anonymous May 11, 2010

    describe its symptoms, is the starter clicking? are the lights dimming when you turn the key? is the motor actually turning over but not firing? make sure your battery voltage is at least 12 volts at the starter. More info is needed.

    Was this a simple plug and play pump or was there an adapter used with an aftermarket high performance pump.

My fuel pump is good, but foe some reason it's not getting any electrical power from the line....what should I do?

Well Jason you could have a bad fuel pump relay in the underhood electrical center . The PCM - powertrain control module turns on the relay . An your vehicle has a anti-theft system probably ! Is there A security light lit on the dash ? If not pull the fuel pump relay out of the electrical center an check for power an grounds , there will be two grounds an one battery voltage an one open . The open will be power when cranking the engine , this is the control side from the PCM . If you look on the side of the relay there should be a circuit diagram , an on the bottom the pin's should be marked 30 , 87 this is the fuel pump side of the relay. 87 is battery voltage , 87 goes to the fuel pump . Pin's 85 , 86 . 86 is ground an 85 is power from the PCM when cranking ! GM Fuel Pump Relay Testing

Run 87 buick century out of gas. put gas in tank, it started but run rough then quit completely and wont restart

How old is the fuel pump?

Check fuel pressure with a gauge on the engine
fuel rail port.

Have someone listen by fuel tank for pump,when you
cycle the ignition on & off

87 buick grand national power antenna went up, but won't go down.

There is a cable and motor that actuates the antenna, the cables break on these all the time.

you can get replacement cables at nos4gn.com

the passenger fender needs to be removed to access the antenna assembly.

1987 Buick Grand National losing power, changed

Symptoms Like this usually point to the Fuel pump.

Also these cars suffer from inferior wiring to the fuel pumps and a substantial Voltage drop is noted between the Fuel pump relay and the Pump harness.

The fix for this is a "Hotwire" Kit

Fuel pump kits with a Hotwire kit are available at numerous Buick performance Vendors but the best stuff in my opinion come from Racetronix,com

You should also change the Prom Chip in the ECM to a modern
Chip from Turbotweak.
This will improve driveability greatly.
