Is there any way to test and see if your fuel pump is broken? I was turning the car over and pressing on the bleeder deal an nothing happened does that sound like the feul pump just up and quit?

You can turn the key on and listen for the sound of the fuel pump humming, it should last about 3 seconds. Or you can jump 12v from the cig lighter to the connector on the C-203(cant remeber what hole but the wire is tan) and it should run the fuel pump constent.

In the ALDL connector is a terminal that connects straight to the fuel pump, bypassing all relays and switches. You can take a jumper wire and connect the orange cigarette lighter wire to that terminal and the pump should run, or you can put a test light on that terminal and connect it to ground, the light should light when cranking and when first turning the key to the RUN position.
