replaced the stock pump, installed a hotwire kit, replaced the relay checked the fuse still nothing how do you prime the system what else can i check?

oh i have a 97 gt recently top swapped
 


Are you sure the hot wire kit is installed correctly, grounded well, that sorta thing? You should have to prime it, thats what it does when it runs for the first few second or to when you turn the key to just before start.
 
Id start with tracing out the power sources then, something not getting power or that pump is possibly bad. Anyway you can hook up a 12v source to the power side of the pump and see if it engages. That would prove out the pump being good and then you could work from there.
 


Well you'd probably have to pull the relay out of the socket and use a multimeter or volt meter and measure for voltage. Probably need to have the car in the run postion, better known as Key On, Engine Off.
 
i dont have a relay there ... never did will it still work? i have another one to try

did that doesnt work nothing to clip too

I owe you an apology. I keep forgetting there are models out there with that blasted fuel pump speed relay. I dont have one so I dont even think about it.
 
replaced the ignition switch still nothing, just thinking if it supposed to prime for 2 sec by the time i get to the fuse box should i still be getting volts at the relay? or would i have to be there within the few secs
