I was on a post about fuel system trouble but cant find my way back! My TB turns over, but won't start. Shot starter fluid up intake and it tried to start. Are there fuses or relays that I can't seem to find? I would like to check these first before going after the fuel pump.

Welcome to AF. Do you hear the pump run for the initial 3 seconds key on?

You need to start from scratch here, how about lites, horn, gages? All the cables tite and clean, what is the battery capacity?

Maxwedge, First off thankyou for your help. The no start was a loose connection at the battery. Backto the fuel problem, this all started when I hit a deep snow drift on an off ramp, (Grand Rapids,Michigan). The TB started hesitating and would clear up. Check engine light. then none. It wouldn't start one morning and I let it sit for a few minutes and a door slam.... It started right up and ran fine. Went out to start it again the other morning and nothing. I don't hear the fuel pump but I never have. Is there a web site that might show me a wiring and fuel system diagram for free? I get the feeling that it's headed for the mechanic. Used to work on all of my vehicles but now I don"t know what I'm looking at!

Unless you find another issue say in the area of the sno bank contact say underneath near some harnesses going to the tank, I would stop here and get it to a tech, give him/her the whole backround on this.

Picked the TB up tonite and $446.67 later, (not bad), it was the ignition switch.I mean not bad considering what I thought it would be. Again, I thankyou for your time and help.
