Could someone tell me where the fuel pump relay is located on a 1990 I looked in the chiltons book and it showed it being on the firewall of the passangers side but i couldnt find it, also could you try to describe what it looks like to me.

Look next to the windsheild wiper motor on the drivers side. If it's a standard trans there will be two (one for the trans and one for the fuel pump, but the same sensor #)

and if you pull it-check the wiring going into it-the insulation shrinks and can cause bare wires to come in contact with one another-you know what happens then??? fuse-or eventual fire.

On the 90 the fuel pump relay should be inside the Pass. Side kick panel, if memory serves.

You are in the right place those "5 black squares" are your relays. The one in the middle should be fuel pump relay#1. The others are relays also, r.window de-fog, horn, dome lamp, fog lamp.
