Hello,

I have some questions.

I went through the normal checks to start my car.

My fuel pump relay appears to be working but I am not hearing the fuel pump run.

I am not getting fuel to the fuel rail at all.

I disconnected the supply to the fuel rail, taped the hose in a bottle, and no fuel was delivered into the bottle when cranking the engine.

I hear a click under the hood when jumpering 87/2 to 30. It sounds like from the right side. That is the rough location of the noise suppression relay.

Will a bad noise suppressor relay prevent fuel to be delivered to the fuel rail?

I want to try to eliminate all the simple and inexpensive fixes before I start replacing fuel pumps.

Its possible that I have a clogged filter, or varnish in the tank since the car sat for a while.

What electrical problems could be causing my problem?

how can I check to see that the sending unit in the tank is getting voltage?
