Hi guys...

I have a no start condition on my 74 2.0 liter,D-jet.
Seems like the fuel pump is not running. As per my crappy manual, I have checked for power at pins 87 and 86 where the pump relay plugs in. There is no power at either pin with the key on. Manual says if that is the case, then start checking ignition wiring. Obviously, I'm missing something. Swapped out relays with no luck also.
Any help really appreciated....
Mike

Mike,
To check the relay/relays you can use a multimeter on ohms scale between pins 30 and 87, should read open with no power. When power is applied to 85 and 86, then the reading between 30 and 87 should be 0 + or - an ohm or 2.
You can use a different relay not being used to temporarily replace the power relay, such as the 4 th realy, which is your heater blower relay, or, one of the round can style ( they all look the same) headlight relays.
