My sister's Neon had a fuel pump go up. This is not safe, but what I did was remove the back seat and smack the hell out of the frame over the tank with my shoe, and it started up, but died shortly thereafter. So to get her car home, I sat in the back, smacking the tank periodically, while my dad drove. Every time it started to die, I'd smack frantically, and it would pick back up for a few seconds. I say it's not safe because if there was an electrical arc caused from me banging and something worked its way really loose, and the tank had a lot of vapor in it, well you can see where I'm going. I'm not responsible for any harm caused by following this advice, but if you smack the tank and it tries to start, fuel pump it is. Hope this helps.
