Hello again,
It's been a little over 2 weeks now and I am getting both frustrated and worn out. When it all started, my CA idled down and died out, . After checking things my fuel pump had gotten plugged and blew the fuse, . Since, I've replaced it with the same pump, (new), and have been unable to get it started. It's been suggested that I may also have developed some corrosion and a ground some where but I haven't found it yet.
When I try to start it, it turn once or twice then idle down and die again, . I've listened to the fuel pump and it sounds like it isn't getting the right amount of power anymore. Another thing I've noticed is that when I toggle the key in the, 'ignition power on' position, my gauges will flicker and reset. COuld my ignition have gone bad as well? I'd hate to imagine that several problems developed at one time, . I REALLY need help with this. Anyone?

Start by checking all your fuses. If you can grab a psi meter from your local auto parts store and check if you have pressure in the fuel line.

Try having the car jumped as the battary may be dead.

Give us an update. If this stuff doesn't work I might have some other idea's as well.

G'luck

Check injectors and fuel filter as well.
