When the car is cold, I rarely can get the fuel pump to prime with key on. Every once in a while, after going key on several times, I can get it to prime. Most of the time I need to crank the car for over a minute (not continuious) to get the the fuel pump to kick on.
I've removed the fuel pump relay from the passenger fender and cleaned the connectors, with no difference.
Another thing I've seen is when the pump does prime, and the car starts, I don't get fuel pressure for a good 10 seconds. This is also intermittent. Sometimes when it does fire, I get fuel pressure after 1-2 seconds (normal), but sometimes it takes so long the car dies.
How should I go about troubleshooting this? Should I start by replacing the relay? Where can I test on the ECM to check if the relay is getting signal when I go key on?
Thanks
