the junper is the female two inlet reciever next to the passenger side shock tower, and the afm. Its just kind of hanging there. You can find it in the Haynes manual.
Happy hunting.

Do you have fuel pressure? Is the pump running? Check for 12V at the connector on the pump, if you have 12V, then the pump may have died, running in tank fuel pumps dry usually kills them from overheating (they use the fuel to cool them down)

i used a jumper and i heard the humming of the fuel pump...i think i may have fouled the plugs out by trying to start it over and over....do you think i should change them out.....i smelt gas from the exhaust
