I recently bought a 1987 chevy camaro we could not get it to start at the place where I bought it due to very old gas, we towed it to my house and I began to work on it. I syphoned all the old gas out and replaced the fuel filter, then when it tried to start it it wouldnt start it cranks over, I took off the fuel lines to c if it was getting gas and nothing came out when I cranked it over, I thought it was the fuel pump not kicking on but then I heard about the fuel inertia switch ive been looking to try to find it and I cant seem to locate it could you tell me where it would b at?

Power the fuel pump direct from the battery if the fuel pump comes on-test the fuel pump fuse and relay.
