Get a test light and check that there's power at the fuel solenoid when the
key's on. If not then guess what fries, the relay/fuse panel. I had a
solenoid
wire come loose on me once and it fried a piece of PC board in the panel. I
had to disassemble and solder in a jumper. The stupid wire is not fused! I
sure hope this isn't what happened.
If you have power to the solenoid then pull the return banjo bolt from the
top of the pump (NA only) and fill the pump with fuel. It should start then.
There's no need to disconnect the lines to the injectors. Connect them and
tighten. I only ever loosen just one to check for fuel and it's not much so
if you loosen it much, you loose the "spritz" and often can't tell if it's
pumping or not until you have a mess. :P
