    Maybe a fuel filter? Gas is really cruddy nowadays. Maybe is it one of those "we got a better idea" models that the put a pressurized tank and you don't have pressure? My Honda had a separate pump inside the tank, hooked with the filter as well as the normal fuel pump. Another thing. There is a "nurse" switch, (I dunno if your car has it) But my junker did. I got mad one day and kicked the fender, whellp the nurse switch is a sensor that shuts the power down to the fuel lines in case of an accident or gas rupture. When I kicked the ole girl, it set the sensor off, and no gas... The switch is (was) a manual reset and it was in the trunk. I hope you get it going! I ain't no mechanic, but I try...... Good luck!!!!
