1989 Buick century starts hard and when driving stalls changed fuel filter fuel pump crank sensor ignition coil modular what else?

I'm in the same position with a '93 century, had the same problem with my old '89 olds cutlass with the 3.3 or 3300 motor. the best I can tell so far is that one of the parts previously replaced is bad (you can get the ignition modular checked at O'Reillys or simillar) or there is a short somewhere in the wiring - posibly the fuel pump or ignition systems. Sorry that's where I'm at.

You can tell if your fuel pump shutoff switch is bad, if the fuel pump does not shut off when you flip the switch. You can also tell if the switch is bad by looking at the wire connections.

As you did not list what model Buick you are referring to it is impossible to answer your question. All I can tell you is to follow the fuel line from the fuel tank to the engine and you will find the fuel filter.


How do you tell if fuel pump needs replaced on 2001 buick regal?

If it is stalling or hard to start that is a symptom of a weak pump. If you do not hear it run for a few seconds after turning on the ignition without starting the engine, then either the fuse is blown, relay is bad or the pump is bad. If you do hear it running, then it may be weak or the fuel filter may be clogged. You may have to listen at the fuel filler door to actually hear the pump. Replace the fuel filter and then run a fuel pressure test at the fuel rail. If you have no or weak pressure the pump is bad.
