Relay? They get hot. I am not getting a light. I'm a computer geek and I know for a fact when relay's get hot they do not open/close properly. SUPER EASY TO CHECK.
Anyone know what fuse box the Automatic Shutdown Relay is located.

Re: Rough Idle after new fuel pump.
UPDATE:
Tune-up was done. I still get a start stall after the engine is hot.
Fuel pressure is reading 44psi @ idle.
Got a P0452 code. 40 bucks to fix that, but it did not show a light.
New MAF
New IAC
TB clean

Tuned with ACdelco
New pump with Airtec
New FPR
Could the TPS be faulty ...

Re: Rough Idle after new fuel pump.
Had my mechanic stop by and we discovered that we did NOT need to replace the FP in the first place. It was......a sparking wire. So winner winner chicken dinner to Mike! Cylinder 1 misfires 447 times and cylinder 2 misfires 40 out of a 3 minute idle test. Moisture played a key on why it did not ...

Re: Rough Idle after new fuel pump.
How do I induce carb cleaner?
you will spray it on a small area of intake manifold and see if the idle changes, then you carry on to the rest of manifold- you do a small area so you can pinpoint the leak. do the vacuum hoses and connections the same way...'...good to know for future diagnosis ...

Found this. Check this out guys, please. Let me know if this is legit, because if this is...I'd rather just change this and be done. If this doesn't fix it, I now narrowed it down.
Thanks for the help!!!!!

Fair enough. Honestly, this is cheap enough to fix with out checking, but im going to any way. Is there a "how to" on changing this out?

Re: Rough Idle after new fuel pump.
I will check both of them. How do I induce carb cleaner? Where is the regulator at? Is it on the injectors, the brass looking thing wrapped around the plenum?

Re: Rough Idle after new fuel pump.
At the time of topic birth, the FP was band new. $300 Airtec. I hear it, but need to test pressure. I need to check the fuel pressure regulator. Can this be replaced?

Re: Rough Idle after new fuel pump.
Did the MAF unplug. Started, but not a smooth idle....not a rough one either. Bunch of pepper if that makes any sense. Turned off and plugged the MAF. Smoother again. Seems I only have problems in the morning during cold starts. I live in the midwest and we have been getting really humid foggy ...

Rough Idle after new fuel pump.
On a cold start it runs rough until I give it gas. Did this before and after fuel pump replacement. Replaced the FP due to codes and light popping up. Started to day with a fast rough idle, gave it some gas and smoothed out. When I got home I shut it off and waited 30 seconds, turned to run, waited ...

Tool set for the Bonnie!
You are stuck at a shopping center and your Bonnie needs fixed. What would you need to fix general repair to intakes in a parking lot?
Example: metric ratchet set, hammer, rubber mallet....
What would the best kit be to have in the car?

Re: Wits end.
Going to the mechanic on Wednesday of next week. Needs new calipers on both sides. They are original factory from 2000. I am afraid he might have to replace the knuckle. I have heard Timkin has a fail rate the same, but "it's how you drive". This is my work car.
