Hello,
I also have an 87 and had this exact problem three weeks ago. It turned out
to be a corroded ground connection. If you have a Bentley check out the
current path for the relays on page 97.106 The bad ground was at 12, you
could not tell until I cut the end off the wire was all black and corroded
for about an inch. Good luck!

Subject: HELP - No power to fuel pump - 87

Hi,

I'm aboiut ready to shoot my 87.....it died a couple of days before
laborday weekend...thought the problem was the AFM...but it wasnt....got
the van to run and it ran fine until this morning....

Right now no fuel pressure....no power to pump...swapped out AFM....no
change....

Relays in little box on dr. side of engine compartment seem to work....and
I'm getting spark...the Idle Stabilizer is working...engine is
cranking...but no fuel pressure or power to pump....basically same type of
symptoms from two weeks ago...

HELP!!! Need the vanagon running to go to Busses by the Bouy this weekend!
