ok I'll try to explain to you without picture...

1.open the boot.

under you battry, more likely directly under the fuse box.

there should be a Gray square panel with 4 screws... - if you unscrew them that's the access into the fuel tank. (I believe fuel tank is kidney shaped).

and if you pull put white cap - it will contain long cylinder instrument and HEAPS of WIRES!!! yes in the fuel tank!! wires.

Please be careful and DO NOT UN-DO (unplug) black horse - its fuel line - one for IN and ONE FOR OUT (returning back to fuel tank) - be very careful cuz if you just unplug them it will SPEW out all the fuels. :) not good.

sorry about da gramatical and spelling mistake ;)

BTW what is the problem? is your fuel (Tank) sensor broken?

cheers

thanks for the reply glue...

well the problem is, the car was working fine... then the next thing i knew the thing wont start... had a mechanic look at it and he say it cud be the fuel pump, had other stuff checked out and they are all fine... what happends is u turn the ignition the engine turns but doesnt stay running, there is fuel in the tank (about last quarter) but when u hear the engine it sound like there is no fuel, it'll turn the engine but then it dies, and i dont hear the usual liquid gushing sound (not sure if u'll know what i mean) when u turn the key to the ignition point.... so next thing to check out is the fuel pump....

anyone else have any ideas what it might be???? the car just wouldnt start, there was nothing indicating anything was wrong... she was sweet, it just sounds like i got no fuel

thanks again for the info....

will check it soon as i have the time

peace

to check the pump, get some one to turn the ignition key on, while you lightly kink the fuel hose in the engine bay, if it pressurises and tries to unkink itself its fine, dont mess around in the tank for no reason. Also you should be able to hear it, stick ur head in the boot or under the back of the car and listen for it as someone else turns the ignition on.

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
