Thanks for the props, but one of my jobs was just a bit more complicated than any car.

The one at the bottom for NASA. They only made 1 test aircraft.


This one, too. Designed & build most of the hardware.
High Energy Laser Systems Test Facility (HELSTF)

i guess that means I'm not gonna get you to hang on to a plug wire while I check for spark?

Well I respect your knowledge. I’m just here for help. I jumped the connector out and ran the fuel pump. Still only have under 10 psi. Where would my inertia switch be on a notchback?

WTF! Come on dude, you think the inertia switch is gonna give you low fuel pressure?
you can waste your time fart'n around with this or that but unless you do the work it takes to actually diagnose your problem then I don't know what to tell ya.
I can tell ya the inertia switch may be behind the passenger side kick panel (I think) or behind the trim inside the trunk probably on the drivers side or by the inside latch, can't remember.

I’m so damn confused right now. One guy is telling me one thing and the other is telling me another thing. I have little pressure. I have a code 96 which is losing power at some point with the ignition in the run position. Last guy posted a probability fail list in order. Inertia was first. I planned on doing the simple stuff first.

Jrichker literally just posted this:

No fuel pressure-possible failed items in order of probability

1. Tripped inertia switch


Which one of you is actually the expert?

No expert needed. You have 10 psi right?
Oh, and jrichker is an expert.
I can just read.
Never mind, just continue on and I'll stop reading.

I got 10 psi. I have a code 96 which means I’m losing power at some point with the ignition on. At some point it stops building pressure. I’m losing the pressure. Usually an electrical thing I would think right? Not trying to cause any problems here. I understand our confusion here. But yes I do have pressure but also am losing power at the same time.
