 I am having a similar problem
The car won't start and I suspected a fuel issue. I tried the the relay bypass method but the Bentley manual does not match my 96 automatic. (I have no relay in location #1. I only have two relays there, not three as per Bentley.)
I pressed on the schrader valve on the fuel rail and got nothing. I suspect the fuel pump is not running. But is it the pump itself or the relay? Which one is the relay?
I guess I can test if I have voltage at the pump during cranking. If I do, I know it's the pump. If not...
Does anyone know which relay goes to the fuel pump on a 96 automatic? (Soon to be an S52 5-speed but not yet.) __________________
