    I'm curious, how do you know the fuel pump was bad?
    Do you have fuel pressure and ignition spark? Are the injectors opening?

    Fuel, Spark, and mechanical integrity of the engine. Do you now have fuel at the engine? then check for spark at the spark plug wires. After that you need to verify the engine is developing compression and everything is in synchronization.

    i just replaced a friends fuel pump... it ending up being the inertia switch. not presser or any thing like that.
