Subject: [alfa] 85 Spider - No fuel feed
Still 5 miles from home today the engine began to sputter
and miss and just quit, sounding like out-of-gas although I
had just filled the tank. After towing it home, I
discovered that neither fuel pump was running. All fuses
check OK. If I jumper the fuel control relay (7-pin) the
external pump will run but the in-tank pump runs only if I
jumper 12V power to it. I swapped out both the main relay
(5-pin) and the fuel control relay with spares from a parts
car that I once drove home but still no power to either
pump. My shop manual does not have an electrical schematic
for the fuel system so I am now at a loss what to check
next. Does anyone have an electrical schematic for this
L-Jetronic system?

My owners manual has a schematic - check yours ( you can buy one from AROC )
