GSLSE wont start

thought it was flooded so i went through the unflooding procedure for a while but still nothing. Checked spark, its there. Plugs are fine. No gas smell from the exhaust or from turning over with the trailing plugs out, even with the pump connected. Im going to check voltage at the pump connector in the bin, and at the pump itself i guess. Where else should i check? Where is the fuel pump relay?

got the car started, used it today, turned it off and on a few times, always shut it off by disconnecting the fuel pump. now it wont start again. there is 10v at the fuel pump connector in the bin. i checked the resistance on the afm and it seems to be right. there is spark on all four plugs. havent been able to check the injectors yet.

what could cause this to work sometimes and not others? cpu short maybe? seems like if i had 1 injector working it would at least start and run poorly.

Check your fusible links to the injection system. Better yet just get some 2nd gen fuses and replace the fusible links.
