'86 323 won't start
 
This car has been a daily runner but suddenly it won't start. Occasionally it tries but stops immediately. I've changed the fuel filter but nothing. I did notice there seemed to be very little pressure when I remove the hose from the filter, only spilled a teaspoon or so. With fuel injection I gotta believe I'm not getting enough pressure. I'm not cherishing the idea of replacing the fuel pump so I'm here to see if there's a way to test the pump or find out if there's something else that might be causing the problem. Any ideas would be greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

perhaps find a point under th car where there is a break in the fuel line that you can disconnect...im not sure if the pump is in tank or not...but if you can check the pressure at a certain point under the car you could tell if it were a blockage somewhere...or perhaps a fuel pressure regulartor issue?
