Open the fuel filler door and remove the gas cap. Listen at the fuel filler opening while a helper turns the ignition on but does not start the engine. The pump will run for a few seconds and then shut off. If you do not hear the pump check the fuel pump fuse and the fuel pump relay. If they are good then the pump is more than likely defective. If you hear the pump then you know it is running but that does not mean it is pumping fuel. A fuel pressure test will verify the condition of the pump. Be sure and replace the fuel filter.

How do you check the 1984 s10 fuel pump to see if it works?

One way you can check to see if the fuel pump is working is to disconnect the fuel line heading into the injector or the carburetor. Be sure there is nothing that can ignite a flame anywhere near you or the vehicle when doing this, and be sure to be outside in a well ventilated area. Have a friend turn the car over for a snap second. If fuel comes out of the line, the pump is working. If not, the pump needs to be replaced. Be sure to check the entire fuel system out first as you may have a clogged line or clogged fuel filter and the fuel pump is working.
