i recently bought a 1987 chevy camaro we could not get it to start at the place where i bought it due to very old gas , we towed it to my house and i began to work on it . i syphoned all the old gas out and replaced the fuel filter , then when it tried to start it it wouldnt start it cranks over ,i took off the fuel lines to c if it was getting gas and nothing came out when i cranked it over , i thought it was the fuel pump not kicking on but then i heard about the fuel inertia switch ive been looking to try to find it and i cant seem to locate it could you tell me where it would b at?

Do you hear the fuel pump come on for a few secs when you turn key to run? I need to know this before we continue

Power the fuel pump direct from the battery if the fuel pump comes on-test the fuel pump fuse and relay.
