Default Re: Car starts, immediately dies?

Might be fuel pump relay related. Two ways to check.


1. Spray something flammable into the air intake and see if it runs as long as you are spraying. If it continues to run while spraying it could be your fuel pump relay in the RCM.


2. Open RCM and close the contact on the fuel pump relay and see if it runs after starting. If it does the coil is bad in the relay. To determine which relay is the fuel pump, looking at the opened RCM there are 5 relays, two on one side, three on the other. On the side with three the fuel pump relay is in the middle. You can jam something to close the relay or just have someone hold it closed.
