    Fuel Pump Relay Location

    Hi guys,
    '84 grand marquis 5.0 TBI 95k miles, started missing a bit, and felt like it was losing power. I put in a new fuel filter drove it a bit and same thing. Put in some gas treatment seemed to run better and went home. I had a new distributor cap and rotor so i put them on. Now it will not start, but it cranks over good. Put on a new coil, got good spark, but still will not start. Thinking maybe fuel pump, but reading the posts, I want to check the fuel pump relay. I have the owner guide, but it doesn't show where the relay is. So what i'd like to know if anyone would know where the relay is located, and if there is anything else I could check. thanks!!

    Possibly on the Driver's fender near the Coolant recovery/Window Washer tank? At least on an '87 it is.....Bobby

            Well looks like your all set now I think the fuel pump relay is a very delicate part of every car. I had mine replaced I think twice within 3 years. I should really be careful with it :<
