I'm guessing a bad relay? The cars been sitting for about a week and I noticed the fuel pressure was still up. I tried to start the car and it was just dead. Any ideas?

Hi Ryan,
Was the fuel pressure up all the way? How much battery did you have left,or was it totally dead? Pump running continuously could be due to a stuck closed relay, or the same thing with the oil pressure switch, if you are still incorporating that item. There are lots of other possibilities regarding parasitic draws. Even a radio circuit can bring a battery down with time.
Happy Superbowl!

I tried disconnecting the wires that go to the fuel pump. The car has a hot wire kit on it. I don't think it's the oil press. switch, since the fuel was at full pressure.

Thanks again.
