75, 2.0, djet. Won't fire. Spark is good. A little starting fluid in the intake and it fires. Clearly a fuel problem. I'm not hearing the fuel pump. Shouldn't I hear it for a few seconds when first turning ignition on? I checked the fuse (#25 on the relay board) and it's good. I'll put a multimeter on the pump terminals to check for power next, but thought I'd throw this out there to the collective for any other input until I can get back to it. Grounds are also on the list. Or put power directly to the pump and see if it runs.

Rainy here in Ohio and a good day to work on the car. I ran through the trouble-shooting flow chart and it shows that my relay board is bad. I had taken it out of the car when I was cleaning and spraying all the electric connections and dollars to doughnuts, I am willing to bet something bad happened to it when I fiddled with it. I will now go and get a rebuilt unit and continue the saga after it is installed. On note worthy of mentioning: I thank all the people who help us shade tree mechanics... the flow chart was a life saver for me and so easy to use. Generally wiring up a lamp is all the electrical engineering I know to do.
