Hello all, rebelburb here, Glad to be part of the online community. My ride is a 87 suburban 5.7 TBI 4x4 automatic. Has ran great until a symptom of "filling the reservoir up and bubbling out of the overflow tube" appeared. So i bought a head gasket set and installed it and a motor mount on the drivers side. The motor mount was installed before putting the heads and intake on, by jacking up the motor a bit. After installing everything I CANNOT get the fuel pump to turn on for the 2 second prime with the key. My oil pressure "warm while going" "was" around 40 psi and at idling around "4 or 5" psi and this is via a manual gauge. It will crank and run while pouring gas into it. I have done some tracing of wires and to the best of my knowledge the fuel pump relay harness is doing what its supposed to be doing. Have installed a new relay, to no avail. It is in time and is firing the plugs while cranking. I have jumped the fuel pump via the red wire and it runs and is barely heard, i might add, and also is producing 15 psi in front of the filter. I have power to the injectors as well. Again i cannot get the fuel pump to run, with the key, for the initial 2 second prime. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!I feel lost without my burb and am now DRIVING A KIA and I HATE IT, for the love of God, i cant get out of the way of other vehicles and don't seem to go much over 50 mph. I've searched the forum but haven't came across much info on my symptoms. Any help will save me from this KIA!!!!!!! Pictures will be posted soon.
