The main ground is the negative battery cable, but there are multiple grounds throughout the car.

Get your battery load tested at AutoZone or O'Reillys. They will also test to see if your alternator is charging.
You should remove your battery connections and clean them up with a wire brush......there may be corrosion present. In other words do the basics!!!

The main ground is the negative cable of the battery, but there are countless grounds throughout the car. Loss of one can create weird symptoms. If you do not have a factory service manual, fixing your car can be an exercise in futility and aggravation. Search on Ebay, the FSMs are frequently very cheap there, but they are priceless for diagnosing problems.

Check the wiring harnesses inside the sleeve between the doors and the body. Broken wiring is very common.

Thank you all yes I have a service manual so far seems to me like it’s just old wiring like everyone is saying on the forums if I want it to work work I need to re wire the car 😂 you guys have a goodnight

What new pump?

My bad I installed a new fuel pump thinking that was it but come to find out after looking and finding out previous owner did his own wiring to what he thought was the correct circuit. I looked At all wiring diagrams. Junction c340 are shared with multiple systems this is located on the driver side by the door sill left kick panel. This gets nasty for what ever reason noticed that when I check it it was nasty cleaned it now car has not shut off.
