Hey Stealth,
Not sure if you got your answer yet or not, but yes it does have a fuel pump relay, I pulled out my 88 manual and it doesn't say where it it is other then saying it is mounted in the engine compartment.

hope that helps

thanks, I will have to wait until a sunny weekend to dig into it.

who put in the order for this much rain?

after two days of heavy rains, the water running down the street is now TOUCHING the undercarriage of the Allante .. which I believe is about 4.5" clearance .. the water is now over the edge of the OEM rims ...

update ...

the relay was working just fine, i could hear a click when the power was turned on, but no pump was running.

I could not find the time to deal with dropping the fuel tank, so after months of car parked, i had car on a flatbed to the local HS auto shop. provided fuel pump, fuel filter, and food money.

fuel pump and filter was pulled covered in GEL, wonderful ETHANOL mix crap we are stuck with .. fuel was about 3 months old (car parked) when the fuel system failed.

cost? $130 for pump, filter, and new fuel to start the car.
Tow? AAA .. no cost.
labor? FREE, but provided $50 for pizzas for students.
total? $180

YEAPH !! they got a car lift, willing students and they work for food!!!

Estimated street shop cost? $450
dealer estimated cost? $550
Savings? at least $270

I also supported our education system and the students were at awe with a Cadillac Allante, something they had never seen.
