I have a 1989 Probe GT mileage is 175K +. I am having a problem with the fuel system. I test drove the car on Jan 3rd. Everything worked fine excep the heater never came on. I purchased the car and drove it home. It drove exceptional. Excpet that the car began to overheat. I replaced the valve cover gasket because it was cracked and the thermostat (iw was froze shut). Then the car would not run. It cranks fine but does not run. I replaced the fuel pump because I could not hear it turn on. It still will not run. I am told that it may oe be the fuel relay switch. I have no idea where this is located on my car can you please help.

The switch is located in the trunk on the driver side. pull the paneling back near left rear fender to expose. This is a very common problem hope this helps
