Same thing happened to me. It turned out to be a corroded fuel pump fuse! A good way to troubleshoot it is to take out the fuel pump relay, stick a wire in instead. You should hear the pump whirr. Try starting. Don't do this too much or you'll get flooded badly. Another thing is that it could simply be flooded. Try pushing the gas all the way down and keep the key on for a bit. -Chris "Brendan Dunn" <> wrote in message news:slrn8hbsou.10m.rohonopsamec.isdn.uiuc.edu... > Hello, > > I'm the owner of a 1988 900T.
