Help 951 wont start. No fuel.
Car wont start. 0 psi on fuel gauge. Fuel pump fuse is good. Pulled fuel pump and bench tested(it is good). No power getting to the fuel pump. Any more ideas???

I had this problem not too long ago, and odds are it's the DME relay for you too.
Any easy way to test if it's your DME relay is to bridge it with some wire wrapped around the pins 87, 87b and 30 like in here: http://www.clarks-garage.com/shop-manual/fuel-05.htm
If it is your relay, pop the cover off it and examine for damage. The connections on the back of the circuit board are prone to fatigue. You can solder them back up quite easily if this is the case. Instructions here:
I didn't bother doing any testing with the multimeter as the connections were obviously broken on mine. Took me 15 minutes to solder everything back together, put it back in and start the car.

Hi Again. Pulled the shield under wheelwell and found leak around accumulator. It is not from the top of it. Fuel filter is dry. Waiting for someone to help crank while I look. Hopefully its at the threads. Fresh ziptie holding top of it so looks like someone was in there not long ago. Thanks again
