wow. punctuation much???

check your ignition switch. you can buy it in two parts. you may only need the rear part. start there. also check you fuel relay in the rear of the car (e.g.; engine compartment).

also check to make sure your airflow meter is connected.

The fuel pump only gets power when cranking and running. Where did you check for power to the fuel pump at?

N.E.O.

Could the problem be that there are no periods, commas, question marks or semi-colons on your keyboard? hehe

Merry Christmas! Glad you got it figured out

I have purchased "non running" cars for dirt cheap and driven them home after reconnecting the AFM.....

i had a fuel pump issue too with my mr2. pain in the ass to fix it with a full tank... and i actually forgot where 2 of the hoses went. does anybody know which of the 2 hoses that go from the fuel evaporator to the tank goes? or can does it not matter where those 2 go.

its an 86 mr2. the two lines go directly from the tank to the evap, it was pretty obvious where they go because one is a bit longer than the other... but i removed them both from the evap and gas tank.
