Ok so yesterday I went to start up my truck, 2007 mazda b2300, and it turned over it cranked but it didn't start, a guy went and tried to listen for a fuel pump sound, and there was no sound, so we determined the pump was out, but I think it may be something else like a fuse or a relay or even the ignition, also I ran it out of gas 3 times in 1 day because I'm too fucking cheap to get more than 20 dollars gas, so that may have had something to do with it, this is fucking gay I need help

#

Also I'm very tight on money so I can't send it to a mechanic because he's going to charge 500 just for the inspection

If you wannat check if it's a fuel issue you can spray deodorant or something flammable into the throttle body and if it sounds like it's going to run then it's a fuel problem. If not then it's a spark issue.

Spark plugs?

#

Oh wait nuh you can go get something called start ya bastard and spray that

#

Well it's probably called something else but just spray it into the throttle body and get someone to start it

It turns over like it's almost going to start

solemn rover
#

Yeah do what I said and see how it goes

#

Take the plastic off from the throttle body and get someone to turn it over while you spray something flammable into the throttle body and see if it starts.

#

If it starts when you spray flammable spray into then it's a fuel issue

Ok we going go to the truck tomorrow morning I going tell the guy helping me to do that ima see if it works

solemn rover

I'm going to cut it down to 2 causes, fuel pump or ignition coil because I already changed the pump fuse, the pump relay, and thing still never like run

#

Piece of shit car

Fuel pump is suspect here, which makes sense based on the troubleshooting you already performed, but I recognize you want to rule out a fuel pump relay. Few options: if there’s another relay that’s the same part number, swap them. Or check for voltage at the fuel pump connector when you key on the car, it should get 12v for a couple seconds to prime the fuel system.

There's an intertia switch right in the top right of the passenger footwell

#

If that popped you'll have no fuel pump

Oh hell, those switches are easy to forget. Good call Bob!
