Fuel Pump Runon
 
Hello people, I went to get my car out of storage but ran into a problem.
With key on fuel pump comes on and keeps running.
With key out fuel pump keeps running. I have to disconnect the battery to kill the pump. If I hook the battery back up its fine until I turn the key on again.
Any suggestions?

my guess would be that your relay is sticking.

I was thinking my relay, but shouldn't it shut off with the key out??

not neccesarily cause there is power going to the relay all the time, even with key-off. Then if the switch in the relay is staying closed its always keeping the circuit open. They are only like $6 or $7. Normally u can check the relay to test if it works or doesnt work period, but I'm not sure how exactly to test if its sticking.

lol, the same way you test a starter relay when it's sticking; rap it with the handle of a large screwdriver and see if it stops.
