I got caught in a hard rain & hit a puddle in my 92 Sentra 1.6L(GA16DE)A/T doing about 40. It ran fine until I stopped at a friends & turned it off. After that it wouldn’t start no matter what I tried,so I got a tow.
The next day was sunny,so I broke out my compressor & spent the whole day checking out connections as I tried to find the problem. I finally realized there was no humm coming from the Fuel Pump. You know when the key gets turned to on position). well it wasn’t humming. So I put a tiny bit of gas into the intake & Varrooom it started rite up(but of course it died). Anyway I’m poking around aimlessly now without knowing where to look next,so please can you direct me to a “Flow-Chart” or maybe suggest a next step.
In short,I’d need to ask,what would make the Fuel Pump on a 1992 Nissian Sentra stop pumping after hitting a big puddle. I’ve put new Bat terminals & new fuel pump relay,checked all fuses & the bottom of fuse blocks(2) in engine compartment for moisture/corrosion,evey connection I could find,including my Oil Sending Unit(which looks interestingly questionable to me).

Well thank you very much *CollegeMan* I couldn’t have done it with out You & More350Power.
Ya know,I’ve been meaning to get back over here & post a letter of gratitude to both you & this forum for providing a place where guys like me can come & ask for help.
A place with friendly knowledgable users willing to share their knowledge freely.
Not to omit things like links to PDF libraries,which can sometimes take days to track down(I know cause I’ve been there).Anyway, I wanted to address the last step you & I arrived at(testing of the CKPS).
I realize it was the logical next step & I feel bad for deviating from our planned avenue of aproach. I meant no disrespect & I apologize to You for deviating from it. However I truely felt the blackened terminals told the story & that investigating them should not to be postponed.
Anyway I thank you for your time, insight & professionalism,You were more than helpfull You were curtious & this forum is lucky fo have You. GoodDay CollegeMan & Good Luck with all You choose to do.
