3 thing to check
1.Fuel pump relay
When you turn the igntion key to the on position you should hear a click on then after about 2-3 seconds a click off,your fuel pump will be getting power while the relay is clicked on. If yo dont here a click it could just mean that you have a quite or external relay. If you have a multi meter then you can test this by putting the - to - and the + to + and getting someone to turn the key to the "on" position. If you get a reading then your relay is fine, If your pump is not making a noise go to step 2.
2. Fuel pump is working
What you can do it get 2 small wires and connect it to the fuel pump its self making sure you have the positive and negative correct. Then touch it to the battery, If the pump operates then the pump is fine.
3. Check your filter.
it may be blocked and stopping fuel getting though the filter to the engine.

Let me know how you go please

HI, MY KANGOO 1.4 2005 PANELVAN IS FEEDING TOO MUCH PETROL TO FUEL RAIL

It sounds like there is an issue with the fuel system in your Kangoo 1.4 2005 panelvan, specifically with the amount of fuel being fed to the fuel rail. Here are a few potential causes for the issue and steps you can try to troubleshoot:
  1. Fuel Pressure Regulator: The fuel pressure regulator is responsible for controlling the pressure of the fuel being delivered to the fuel rail. If the fuel pressure regulator is malfunctioning, it could be causing too much fuel to be delivered to the fuel rail.
  2. Fuel Return Valve: The fuel return valve is responsible for controlling the flow of fuel from the fuel rail back to the tank. If the fuel return valve is malfunctioning, it could be causing too much fuel to be delivered to the fuel rail.
  3. Fuel Pump: The fuel pump is responsible for delivering fuel from the tank to the fuel rail. If the fuel pump is malfunctioning, it could be causing too much fuel to be delivered to the fuel rail.
  4. Fuel Injectors: The fuel injectors are responsible for injecting fuel into the engine. If the fuel injectors are clogged or malfunctioning, they can cause too much fuel to be delivered to the fuel rail.
  5. Fuel Filter: The fuel filter is responsible for removing impurities from the fuel before it reaches the engine. If the fuel filter is clogged, it can restrict the flow of fuel and cause too much fuel to be delivered to the fuel rail.
  6. Engine Control Module: The engine control module is responsible for controlling the fuel system. If the engine control module is malfunctioning, it could be causing too much fuel to be delivered to the fuel rail.
It's recommended that you take your vehicle to a qualified mechanic to diagnose the problem and repair it. Some of the above-mentioned components may need to be checked and replaced, and they may require special tools and knowledge of the vehicle

1995 Ford Explorer fuel pump working fuel getting to the fuel filter no gas on rail will start with starting fluid

If fuel filter is clogged no gas will reach your injectors. Or maybe the fuel pressure is not high enough due to a weak pump.

Leak at fuel rail on volvo 960

take a lead from your battery .then reach under the inlet manifold. remove the 10mm bolt and copper washers one each side of that bolt. that is the feed line from your fuel rail to the cold start injector .now remove each of the ten mil bolts holding on your fuel rail . now remove the clips holding the injectors to your fuel rail. place some clothes under the fuel rail and lift off . care needed due to fuel wear eye protection due to fuel pressure..

Any ideas? fuel starvation on 94 m3. problem is fuel coming from filter but not reaching injectors. whats inbetween i see pipe goes under intake but what to? cheers in advance gotta get this sorted.

the only thing that would be stopping the fuel from reaching the injectors, if.. the fuel filter is good is the fuel pressure regulator, its ran by vaccum, on the end of the fuel rail, one of the lines hook to it... that would be my guess.

On our 1997 express van there is no fuel getting to the engine, however ther is fuel at the filter on the frame rail. Why is the fuel not reaching the engine. The van will start if we add fuel by hand.

the lines might be kinked or clogged. have you ran a curb recently? also there should be no fuel on the frame rail, you have a leak. that is a most likely cause

Change spark plugs

disconnect the bat. and have to disconnect the coil packs from on top of each plug. there are eight. might have to disconnect the fuel rail to reach the back ones. the rear passenger is the hardest. very small movements. but is possible without buying the special tool. if you take off the fuel rail "don't" strip the bolts going back in. the intake is aluminum and is easily damaged. driver side is hardest on the fuel rail due to fuel regulator is in the way. the engineers were very tricky. good luck

No power to plugs or coils wont start

You sghould check to verify that fuel is reaching to the rails. There is a possibility that there might be a fuel blockage before the rails
