My son has a 93 Mercury Sable(3.8l) and it will not start. There was no fuel goin to the engine so i got a new fuel pump put in and it still will not start. the engine is strong and it trys to start( it cranks but it wont start). The car just recently had a oil change, a new fuel pump, a new alternator, a new distributor cap, and rotor button. Any idea what the problem could be????

Check the fuel pump relay.

I have the same problem. I put in the new pump and still no fuel pressure or no pump turning on. It may be the pump relay then. Where is it? Is there also a fuel pump fuse? I have the 1994 sable 3.8.
Thanks

Make sure you have power going to the fuel pump. There is an inertia switch located in the trunk, check to see if it is closed.

I found out the problem. It was in the wiring. the connector near the the radiator was bad. Thanks for everything.
