I smell alot of gas while im cranking though so I was sure the injectors are getting fuel :shrug: I cant remember If its my MX6 that had a fuel pump that clicked when you turn the key to position 2 or is it the MX3.....
The fuel pump doesnt turn on until the engine is cranking. I just replaced my fuel tank and pump so I have fresh knowledge.

Oh I know, I saw the post up top, just for the next time you have to troubleshoot, when you get to fuel system you will be like "Oh yeah, the fuel pump doesn't kick on until you crank the car." :freak:
