There may be a sensor at the bottom of the harmonic balancer,if the sensor is weak or not functioning it will not start,sometimes you can adjust it up.This may or may not be the case in your particular vehicle.

SOURCE: fuel pump relay location

Hi irvj6ohn:
The 1993 and 1994 XJ6 Fuel Pump Relay is located in the trunk of the vehicle on the right hand rear side. It is light blue and black in color.
I hope this helps.

SOURCE: 2000 Jaguar S-type 4.0 sport no fuel pressure

this is the fuel pump itself that has failed, replace it. It is located inside the fuel tank and is sold as a module assembly about $675
BOSCH Part # 67935 {Fuel Pump Assembly}
or as just a pump which you splice into the old sender assembly fuel pump module for around $120
AIRTEX Part # E2314 {In Tank Electric Fuel Pump}
Strainer included with pump.

SOURCE: 1986 Jaguar XJ6 Won't start.

if your fuel pump and relay are new, how about your fuel filter, if your fuel pump is working but no fuel turns out, check fuel pump polarity, if ok, there will be a clogging in fuel lines, take a high pressure air and plug it to fuel outlet in fuel lines test port, allow air to go back up to fuel tank and observe if the air goes, if not, check or change fuel line, if the air goes to tank, direct your fuel relay pin 30 and 87 and check if the fuel runs to the injectors, if not, change a good fuel pump

2004 olds alero. new fuel filter and plugs. still wont start.

Did you check for spark at any ot the spark plug wires/ coils? If there is, check for fuel pressure at the fuel rail. Take the port cap off and connect a fuel pressure gauge. If one is not available, with a pocket screw driver deppress valve at port and observe if fuel pours out. If no fuel comes out at all, check your fuel pump circuit. Check for good ground and power at fuel pump connector. If power/ground are ok, replace fuel pump. If spark and good fuel pressure is present, there is the possibility of engine mechanical issues(jumped) timing chain). Also, a plugged catalitic wont let engine start but its very unlikely thats your problem. Start with your basics: spark, fuel, engine mechanical and catalitic.

1992 toyota tercel turns but wont start

running out of ideas, try spray trhotle body cleaner while some one try to start the car, if it runs then your problem is in fuel pump circuit or pump, by pass or jump fuel pump relay and check fuel pressure, check at relay socket your signal from ignition switch it must be hot all times(ignition on) also check your ground points, clean then if excesive resistance, good luck.

Why 92 ford f150 wont start

does it crank over and not fire if so check for spark if tou have spark check the fuel rail for a tire valve looking device if cap is still on remove and press shrader valve while someone cranks engine if you have no fuel spraying out of this in great volume check fuses for fuel pump try swaping fuel pump relay with horn relay if these things do not work look under or just above carpet line on passengerside floorboard in center area near heater box for the inertia switch if red button can not be pushed unplug and jump plug with small wire and crank over if it starts this is your problem if you do not hear fuel pump at this point fuel pump is bad

Engine cranks but wont start.

You'll want to start by checking the fuel pump. Turn on the ignition and listen if you can hear the fuel pump working. If nothing, check fuses & relay for the fuel pump.

My 2000 chevy S10 wont start I changed the battery and it ran fine for 2 days now it will turn over but won't start

Check Fuel Pressure. First turn key to on position (without starting) and listen for the fuel pump motor. If no motor sound, your fuel pump is not working. Check fuel pump fuse and relay. If fuel pump works, check for pressure at the fuel rail (schrader valve on fuel rail for pressure testing). If no pressure, or not enough, fuel filter might be clogged or fuel pressure regulator may not be working properly. IF fuel is not the problem, start checking electrical, such as ignition control and proper spark to plugs.

I have spark at he plugs, but veh wont start 1994 is it fuel???

Well there is only two things that make an engine run... one is spark the other is fuel. if you have spark to the plugs through the wires i would check for fuel. There should be a shraider valve on the fuel rail if it is fuel injected, ( it kinda looks like a valve stem on a tire but all metal). have someone turn the key while you are under the hood with cap off wait for the fuel pump to pressurize, then push the valve core in and see if there is any fuel going into the fuel rail. if not then a fuel pump, filter, or fuel pump relay is bad. I f there is fuel e-mail me and i will help you further. [email protected]

My 96 blazer wont start it just cranks but wont start?

A typical engine needs mostly just gas and spark to run (besides air of course)
Sounds like the engine is not getting one or the other.

Fuel goes from fuel pump, to filter, to fuel pressure regulator, to fuel rail, to injectors.
You can test for fuel pressure with key on, at the fuel rail. There will be a test port on the rail that you can put a rag on top and push in the valve to see if there is pressure. (or use pressure tester)
If there is no pressure, check that fuel pump relay is working. (you can use an ohmmeter on relay to see if there is resistance). You can also test power to relay and to the pump with a voltmeter to see if pump is getting power. Or turn key to ON position and listen to see if you hear the pump turn on.

If you have no spark to any cylcinders, the crank shaft position sensor may be faulty which is very common in GM vehicles.

You can use an ohmmeter to test the sensor itself.
You can also get a spark plug tester to see if there is spark to each cylinder.
You can also remove one spark plug, plug back into plug wire, lay on top of engine so spark plug diode is 1/4" away from metal surface. Have someone else turn engine over while you look for spark. Do this to each cylinder.
