Ok im new here but not new to the 240 scene. Im usually on Zilvia and FA. ok so heres the problem, i got a '89 fastback with ka24e. and this problem happened last week. have fun reading and thanks for taking itnerest.

This happened last week:

Like the title says,my car wont start for some reason.

a little recap of what happened today:

woke up and went to the junk yard to find a spoilerless hatch, found one but had a big dent on one side so i said screw it. picked up a black steering panel that goes under the dash (ned it because im swapping from blue to black interior). So got to my cousins house and put it on. Then after when i was leaving the car started to have problems. STarted up a few times but had idle paly and died. Did it a few more times and kept on dieing. Then left my car over there to go to work.later went back and tried to jump start it with my bros car and nothing. now it doesn't start but it clicks and turnsover.

so what the hell is going on?

UPDATE:

Some people on Zilvia told me it may be the fuel pump relay but: found out that it wasn't the relay. So should i shoot for a new fuel pump next?

UPDATE:So i the relay wasn't the problem. I took out my fuel pump today to have it checked by kragen. But they won't test fuel pumps, only batteries and starters. SO the counter guy tell em to hook up my fuel pump to a power source to test if it winds (spins).

So i get home and do just that. So i get some wires plug it into the power source and the fuel pump. So i power it up, after a few seconds of winding it jsut goes flat. And it winds very slow. So i think my best bet would be a faulty fuel pump.

what are your guy's opinions on this? a bad fuel pump?

UPDATE:I was bored and hooked the fuel pump back up to the power source and now the pump works. Don't know what really is going on!!!

ok so now thats away can any of you help me out? the reason i put it on here to get more ehlp, no offense but not every 240 enthusiast is on Zilvia, so i like to get more help from different forums.

anyways thanks for looking and thanks if you can help me.
