The Main Fuel Pump Relay should be in the trunk or on the passenger side firewall, just inboard of the Main electric Relay. there is a relay switch in the Inertia Switch also. Check for voltage to the fuel pump on the harness connector near the fuel tank. Its under the carpet in the trunk. Work forward from there.

I know that it is mounted near the right rear tail light assy on the 1994MY sedan. I forget if it is the same on the 1993.

Thanks Kirk and Bob, It isn't near the rear light, and I dont see it on the firewall. That is unless the colour of the relay was changed, I'll go through the trunk tomorrow, Thanks again......Roger.

The relay is SUPPOSED to be light blue and is mounted in a BLACK base.
The electrical guide states that the 93/94 are the same so it should be near the right tail lamp as kirk511 has in his car.

Thanks Kirk and Bob, found it, as you say, near the rear light assembly. I was looking too low. No power to the fuel pump, fuse blown. replace relay, fuse and filter. She fired right up ! Thanks again for your help.......Roger.

Roger:
Did you replace the fuse and still have to replace the Relay or like me just R&R everything?

Hi Kirk, No the relay was bad as well. I don't know whether one contributed to the other, or not......Roger.
