04 Mustang wont start!!!

[lwood]

Have an 04 mustang Gt that i can not get to start. It will turn over but it is acting like its not getting any fuel. I checked the shut off switch in the trunk and its not tripped. The car sits most of the time and only has 29,000 miles on it so i cant see how the fuel pump is bad but i have no idea. When i turn on the car i dont think i can hear the fuel pump cycle. i checked the fuses and they are all good. Please help... i am located in the DFW area so if there is any one in the area that could give me a hand please let me know or if any one has any other ideas. Thanks

I know you said you checked all the fuses. But did you check both fuse box locations? (under the hood and on the box under the dash)'

When i i had this problem it was a 20a fuse under the dash.

best thing to do is to get a friend to try an turn it over while you beat the shit out of the tank..bcuz of all this ethonal in gas its frying pumps. three your fuel relay also

check and see if your getting fuel at the rail...the lil schrader valve I guess its called.

i checked all the fuses including the one you Twista suggested, but on mine it was fuse #15 not 18, 18 was for flashers. And in 2004 Ford went away with the schrader valve on the fuel rail. Where is the fuel relay? according to the book there is not one for the fuel pump.

there has to be. ill look it up tommorrow to see what i can find. did you get a friend an do what i said. try an turn it over while you or your friend beats the bottom of the tank with a hammer

beating on a tank seems erratic imo. what do i know. how much fuel is in the tank?

check for spark also..

i live in the dfw area, may be able to give you a hand sometime when i can get my gt back up myself.

Did you check all of the basics first? Fuel, Spark, and Compression? If not I would start there.
