Its possible becasue its a common link in the two.

There are so many different systems that the fuel pump is associated with that every one of them would have to be checked and at the rate we've been going and the equipment you have on hand it could take weeks to find the source. The only thing we can do easily is to check the obvious things like relays, fuses, looking for voltages at connectors and trying what Elky suggested to see if the pump tries to run. The fuel pump is tied in with the PCM and that gets inputs from all over on the car and on the engine and a fault in any one sensor or input into the PCM can affect the operation of the fuel pump.




Thanks again. Is there anyway to run a PCM test?

Or are you thinking I should just take it in? Would I need to go to a Ford dealer? Or just an indy shop?

I'm going to wait for those parts from Bill, and see if there are any changes. I may run to a j-yard and grab an ignition switch as well. Check some more fuses...
