Default 86 no start

Got all the bugs worked out getting ready to leave for the N.C. get together.
While in traffic the car died 3 times just like you turned off the key. I went down the interstate and behind a 6 car pile-up it dies 3 more times. I went back home 8 miles and parked it. Now it will not start I do have Fuel pressure via my gauge, all the relays have been replaced whats next?

That is the fuel pump fuse so RELAY RELAY RELAY swap in the horn relay for the fuel pump relay then the LH brain relay ...or jumper the 30 and 87 slots on the board for the fuel pump see if you have power to the fuse.

As Jim said, check the relays. Just because they are new doesn't mean they are not faulty or have failed. Jump the fuel pump relay first and see what happens.

How can he be getting fuel pressure if the pump isn't working due to a bad relay?

Then jump the ingniton relay and so on, untill you are certain that it is not a relay issue.

I'm still confused. How can you have fuel pressure but no power at the fuel pump?
Does the starter turn?

Starter turns, bypass on unused Relay shows 12v and yes fuel pressure, no power to computers. No power to last bank of fuses still looking for alarm. The car stalled 6 times while sitiing in traffic, got it home now will not start. It did this before but I thought it was due to my repairs I did find a bad shorted closed relay which kept power on all the time to the computers and that seemed to fix the problem at least I thought so.

How are you verifying fuel pressure? If its a permanantly mounted gauge on the fuel rail you should verify that you actually have pressure and not a bad guage.
