Codes think its fuel pump

ridin135 · 11-05-2009, 06:01 PM

My car has never had any long cranks or anything like that. Two nights ago I was driving with the music up and my radio went out and I smelled a burning type of smell like nylon burning, figured this was just outside. I figured I just blew a fuse and checked all the stereo fuses and they were all fine. I turn the stereo back on and I have sound again so I figured everything was fixed. I try to start the car the next day and there is a very long crank and it sounds like its missfiring and it dies. I also get a picture of my car on a lift on the dash, which means not to drive it.

Fuel Cap?

What do you mean by won't run? Won't turn over at all?

If it has more than 200 miles on it (according to my service dude), the highest probability is fuel pump.

Those are codes from bad sensor connections, I think. Did you have a pin out tuner? Maybe mixed connectors up?
