Ford Bronco II 1990 fuel pump question?

I'm not getting gas to the engine so i suspect i need to change out the fuel pump. I just read that there are 2 on my bronco? How do i know which one to change out?Ford Bronco II 1990 fuel pump question?
First check the inertia switch, make sure it has not been tripped. This is located under the floor mat on the right side of the transmission panel. The carpet has to be pulled back to find it.

My information says that only the 88 model has two fuel pumps. But to be sure look at the frame rails on the left side I think. This is close to the fuel filter and behind a metal guard. I don't think you will find one there. The 90 models should have only one, a high pressure one in the gas tank.

The gas tank is not hard to drop with a floor jack, but be careful to disconnect all the lines and wires going to it before attempting to lower it. This is a bear, I did one by myself. I broke some wires and had to splice them. The o-ring for the sender will be out of sorts due to exposure to the gasoline. I never did find the right one and had to use RTV to reseal the tank. The unit is staked into position and no doubt rusted up too. That took some time to get out also.

Hopefully the problem is the inertia switch.Ford Bronco II 1990 fuel pump question?
Your car has a %26quot;fuel pump relay %26quot; check it first , it controls the fuel pump ,if its bad fuel pump does not work! should be on left inter fender well under hood. most of them are brown an black in color. the fuel pumps one in tank is low pressure an one on frame is high pressure. you can have some one turn key on for you an listen at fuel tank for sound and at pump on frame .runs only about 3 seconds. so be ready when they turn on key.Ford Bronco II 1990 fuel pump question?
it don,t have to be the pump michael ! it could be the fuel filter clogged up. there is only 1. i think they were talking there are 2 different kind instead of 2 pumps. first change the filter then check the pump fuse.Ford Bronco II 1990 fuel pump question?
