88' fuel system ?
having multiple problems with my fuel system here is how it started
it barely started on my thanksgiving travel so i didnt shut it off for seveal hours till i got there and then i could not hear the fuel pump running
i replaced the fuel pump and filter and it didnt work, then i discoverd there was no power so i checked the fuel pump relay, and the control wires for it didnt have hardly any power
so i replaced the eec relay, that didnt help much still only about 3 volts to the fuel pump relay control wires, then i hotwired the relay (temporarily till i find the fuse or short) and got power the the fuel pump, but still no pressure
so i am completely lost any help would be appreciated

Beastie, check the fuel inertia shut-off switch. It's probably on the passenger side footwell, under the carpet. Push the reset button several times and see if that has any effect.......
I'm not sure about this; does the fuel pump run? If it dosen't run but you have voltage going to it, maybe the ground wire is disconnected or poorly grounded.......

what i mean by hotwire is that i manually connected the ignition wire and fuel pump power wires so there is power and i hear the pump running
so based on info i have gotten from others on this site i figure either the rear pump is not working, not getting power, or not getting enough power and the computer is recognizing this and not giving the power to the relay
