0 fuel pressure reading

Out on holidays and truck started playing up. Down on power,slight miss under load and both fuel pressure gauges reading zero. Ones electronic and ones mechanical. Borrowed a test light and cant see any power o my walbro fuel pump. Also there is no priming noise with ignition on. Where can I find the fuse for the fuel pump.

I think mine and yours are different fuses, but mine is #19 in the under hood box. The fuse closest to the firewall and towards the brakes.

It seems to be fuse 40 inside the cab. Also, if u were off roading, maybe u tripped the inertia switch in the right kick panel. That is located in the circuit between the fuse and the pump

Fuel pump is fuse number 40 20A, for '02 and '03. See attached PDF.

Your to fast for me Carlton. Good idea about the inertia switch.

Don't know where it might be on a RHD, the pic is for a LHD.

Brian hasn't been back. Maybe he is on a wild wallaby chase.

Strange thing is right now it is going on 4:00PM in Sydney. Doubt he went to bed. Even stranger now hat I think of it. It's about 4PM tomorrow in Sydney right now.

Sorry guys , had to duck up the pub for a few bevies and dinner. The problem truned out to be intermittent so I started looking elsewhere than the fuses. Thanks for the info guys. If my fix isnt right I know where to go next. The nut holding the wire on the positive on the fuel pump was a bit loose so I nipped it up real good and it seems to running fine again. Will keep an eye on it.

That sucks. Gotta be climate change. Send them to the movies. That would give you a couple hour break at least.

How many time zones in Australia.
