Yesterday afternoon when I was leaving parking lot my car suddenly stuttered and died. I tried to start her again but no dice. She'll crank but would not start.
My assumption was immediately fuel pump, because it used to whine a little but now when I turn the key to ON position it won't even make a sound. Long story short: I broke down about half mile down the street from Tansky Toyota in Dublin OH. I used one of my three AAA tows and had her towed to their shop. Today I got a phone call from the manger telling me that the car is throwing two codes: fuel pump and knock sensor. I am not mechanically 100% so my question is: what are the chances of pump going out at the same time as the knock sensor? Also, the dealer quoted me over $1200 (without the tax) to fix the car. That seems to me WAY too steep. What are your thoughts guys? -------------------- '94 ST

Got the pump out of the car. Gotta go to work in 45 mins. Will follow up on this thread tomorrow.
Just a quick couple questions: -How do you pull the EFI fuse out? Is it somehow secured in the box? Tried to pull on it but i won't come out. -Where is the fuel filter located and how hard is it to replace it? -Where is exactly knock sensor located on the block? Thanks!
