I have a 94 camaro that I jsut replaced the fuel pump in because the old one went bad. Now, when I turn the key forward, before I start the engine, instead of the fuel pump priming for 2 secs and then stopping it continualy runs. Then when I start the car it revs to 3000 rpms and then dies, even if I push on the gas pedal. It's like the fuel pump shuts off. After the car dies the pump turns back on a couple of secs later. Anyone got any ideas? I have also replaced the filter and fuel pump relay. I had heard it's an electrical problem, but the only other thing I could think of was the computer (ECM) might be bad.

Go back over the areas you worked in, you may have pulled a wire off or forgot to attach. If it hasn't been started a few times, there may be a chance of air still in the fuel lines and they are not purged of airlocks yet.

Either cycle the pump on/off a few times, or remove the fuel pump relay and short with a fused jumper across the power leads to energize the pump and allow it runs for a couple of minutes. Then, replace the relay and attempt to start normally.

After the above suggestion, I'd disconnect the battery for 5 minutes, and start over.

If it still doesn't act the like it should, then beg/borrow/steal/rent a scan tool and see what codes there are.

Oh......Welcome to the Club! Lots of good expertise here.......I'm still learning.

Okay! Couldn't be fuel pump regulator. Regulator only controls fuel pressure not pump activation. If that was the case, if a car was in an accident and the fuel lines were busted and the regulator controlled the pump you would never build pressure and fuel would spray every where. That is a safety procedure put in by GM. It has to be electrical. I know its not the fuel pump. I check the voltage running to the connector where the fuel pump plugs in and it has 12V running continuosly. When priming the pump it should power on for about 2 sec then stop. It should only have continuous power when the car is running. with that said the pump doesn't have a short in it. I have now replaced the ECM and it still doesn't work. I am going to try the ignition switch and module. From what I understand the ignition grounds the pump relay to make it start pumping and I think it may be shorting out. I also don't know the conditions of the car before the pump went out. I just bought it with the pump out from a friend and she doesn't know squat about cars.
