2007 Sedan suddenly won't start - Toyota Yaris Forums

Is there a simple way to determine if the fuel pump is pumping or not? Someone at work suggested I rent a fuel pressure gauge and connect it to a test port on the car. I'm not sure the Yaris has a test port on the fuel line. My friend said it's similar to the fill or bleed fitting on an A/C system. If it has one, Autozone lends out the meter for free but with a refundable $150 security deposit. I also thought I read somewhere that the Yaris reads the fuel pressure and if it wasn't right that there would be an error code or some other kind of indication? I just hate to spend a lot of time electrially troubleshooting the fuel pump if it may be working. In the old days you could just disconnect a fuel hose and put it in a pail to see if the fuel pump was pumping...
