It is like electricity. Devices we use need it for power. It's the same concept, the car needs fuel to run, it's like its power source.

What else would you replace on a 1988 Chevy Corsica if the car wont start unless you pour gas directly into the carburetor and the fuel pump fuel sensor alternator battery and o-ring has been replaced?

Why won't 1996 sierra six cylinder start even after fuel pump has been changed but when you pour gas in the throttle body it will start until that runs out?

you should check your fuel pump fuse and relay and if that isn't the problem, make sure you are getting power to the fuel pump if all is good it may be possible that you have purchased a bad pump. you can also remove the pump from the tank and hook it directly to a battery to check power.

Sounds like the fuel pump is not working. Need to check the fuel pump relay and fuse and make sure thay are good. Also check the fuel filter.


What happen when you pour fuel injector cleaner directly into a throttle body injection?

You completely waste the injector cleaner. It has to flow through the ports which supply fuel to the engine to do its job. That's why the directions tell you to put it into the gas tank in a certain ratio to gas. It mixes with the fuel in the tank, flows through the system and out of the injector ports.
