It's not the relay....swapped that for the working one in Lago last year.  Pump doesn't work with jumper either.  Pump worked when I hooked up 12v in trunk(sprayed me down when cracked line at regulator, but didn't put a gauge on it)  Need to get it somewhere I can mess with it.  Already went thru all the tests in the book which led me to bad wire to/from ecu(also verified it's good) since I don't have spark either  (only thing at time I hadn't verified was pin).......New ignition switch was also tested at time also.  Need to get a nicer voltmeter with longer leads and recheck everything.  Anyone care to rave about their voltmeter?  Borrowed a Fluke 77 and thinking of upgrading to something better than a nice $40 one.  The last one I had had a beep for continuity which I like.  Smoked my voltmeter awhile back being plugged into the wrong unfused lead connector while trying to find the voltage draw(on the 5-speed which also is leading me to a bad wire somewhere).  HATE dealing with wiring in a car, and out of all the cars I've owned in my life, the V8 wins the award for most issues.  Saw a friend's old '50 Chevy 1 ton and it had a total of 7 fuse holders in the fuse box, but there were only 4 needed for it to function(not sure what the other 3 were for).....Ha.
