This morning while in town my Cherokee started spitten and sputtering. I managed to get into a parking lot before it died. This ain't the first time this has happened. It's done it many many times. It vapor locks on me (heat soak). So I let it sit for a while, normally 30 to 45 min an I can go on with my business. Well it's still sitting in the parking lot. There is no fuel getting to the fuel rail. I moved around some relays thinking that might be it but that's not it. Is there a fues for the fuel pump or did I get that lucky and the fuel pump go out?

 

Can you hear the pump run when you cycle the key on off?

 

Can you also confirm the ignition works to. Usually shoot brake clean into the intake and see if it try's.

 

No I checked that. That why I'm thinking fuel pump but I wasn't sure if there is a fuse for it.

 

Everything works engine turns over but no fuel getting to the fuel rail.

Thanks. Will it work with the fuel pressure regulator being on the pump in the tank.

 

Confirm the pump is getting a signal to run. Have a friend cycle the key while you probe the connector at the tank with a test light. One wire will be constant low voltage with key on, that will be for the gauge. Other will be a bright light for about 5 seconds when key is cycled to on position.

 

It's a replacement for the pump that's currently in your fuel pump module.

 

Ok. I'll check that when I go back tomorrow.

 

Ok. The one in the tank sits diagonally, it's not a top mount.

 

So this is just a small pump that can be changed with out dropping the tank. Best idea ever!! And it's a lot cheaper!
Just one thing that matters is how much fuel is in that tank.

 

2 gallons for sure. I walked to car quest and bought a gas can for $16 and put in 2 gallons.

 

I'm hoping I won't have to drop the tank all the way. I dropped it a few inches before to check vac lines. It looks like I can change it like that. Hopefully.

 

Tank don't need to be dropped at all, it's pretty easy to change the pump on earlier XJ's.
