Please help
I have a 91 buick regal and it won't start. Before it quit I would be driving it and it would all of a sudden shut off like it was out of gas and I had a full tank. I know it's something to do with the gas lines, filter or pump but I don't know which. I took the lines off my carborator and no gas was comin through when I pumped the gas. Any suggestions on what it can be??? I need to fix my car ASAP for work!!! Thank you in advance for any help you can give.

Re: Please help
Welcome to AF!!
Your car probably has throttle body injection rather than a carb. Since it is injected they problem is probably the in-tank fuel pump. If you pull the fuel line and then turn the key on you should get fuel if not the filter is either blocked or the pump is totally gone. Also you should hear it come on when the key is turned on. Either way the only way to fix this is to replace the pump or filter or both. |

Re: Please help
IIRC, the 91 Regal had multi port fuel injection (MPFI) with a throttle body. You will not see fuel flow through the throttle body. The injectors inject fuel directly through the intake port into the head. Have you checked for fuel pressure on the rail and for plug spark when it will not start?
