Regal V6-3100 3.1L VIN M SFI (1996)
FUEL PULSE DAMPENER
The fuel pulse dampener is installed between the fuel pump and the fuel sender to dampen fuel pulsation and reduce noise generated by the fuel
pump.
FUEL PUMP ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT
When the key is first turned ON the PCM energizes the fuel pump relay for two seconds to build up the fuel pressure quickly. If the engine is not
started within two seconds, the PCM shuts the fuel pump OFF and waits until the engine is cranked. When the engine is cranked and the RPM
signal has been detected by the PCM, the PCM supplies 12 volts to the fuel pump relay to energize the electric in-tank fuel pump.
An inoperative fuel pump relay can result in a no start condition.
An inoperative fuel pump would cause a no start condition. A fuel pump which does not provide enough pressure can result in poor performance.
