hello everybody, i have a 95 240sx automatic(daughters car) not getting fuel, fuel pump was changed out little over 2yrs now. My daughter is military over seas, and now coming back home finally. the car has been sitting for awhile. we were starting it up once a month until recently we let it go about 4 months with/out starting it. now we go to start it and it turns over fine but wont start? I cant here the fuel pump whining? Is there a way to check pump or relay before pulling the pump? we have spark, just no gas getting to it? thanks in advance.

you can check over the pump by just turning the key to the "on" position and listening for the prime.

It's advisable to change the fuel filter and to pump out that old gas.
