yea its getting spark just no fuel.. the fuel pump doesnt turn.. i checked voltage at the pump (white/purple wire) because i was told to look there by the head tech at smoothlinez but there is no voltage there..

even if the fuel pump burned out ..wouldnt it turn on since i put the new one in.. when it first died it would turn on but then i give gas and it would just die out.. like no fuel pressure.. now it just cranks

Woops didn't read the end of the OP.... if it is new.... not much you can do.... it might be the wiring... Are you gettin power to ecu? Did you check all the fuses... fuel pump relay bad?

could it possibly be your fuel lines?

no i highly doubt it is the fuel lines.. because the fuel pump would turn on .. in this case it doesnt even turn on..

Is it it called an egi pump relay.... that is just 1 relay right? Is there 2? I dun remember, you can just grab a relay from somewhere else in the fusebox that doesn't matter. Just make sure its the same color.... which I think is green

You can pick up the relay at autozone. Color won't be the same but just make sure the diagram for the circuit is and you'll be ok. I would bet it's your relay if your fuse isn't blown but the fuel pump isn't getting power.
