Do I Need A Fuel Pump????

Acura Tl

My Son Ran Out Of Gas In His 1996 Tl. Now The Car Will Not Run. I Here The Fuel Pump When I Turn The Switch On. But When I Remove The Gas Cap, There Is No Presure To Be Released. I Have Taken The Gas Line Off Both Before And After The Fuel Filter. Both Times Turn The Switch On With The Gas Line Removed, I Get A "weak Stream" Of Fuel From It. Should The Gas Squirt Out Of The Line Or Filter?(more Than 5 To 7 Inches) Please Help....anyone. Yes, I Did Put Gas In It..

5-7 inches seems okay to me...Depends on the volume of the stream. 1996 I would say fuel filter... (make sure there arent 2). There can always be crap on the fuel pickup.

But I really dont know...

If you give more details we could maybe help... Does the car want to start? Did it have any issues before? Have you replaced on the filters or fuel pump in the past?

I still think that you would have better help in the 1 gen forum...
