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.

Hey Al, it looks like we are in this together. Spoke was super helpful, and of course the Bowlsby PDF from your thread.
I thought if I put power directly to the pump, it should turn. Nope. So it makes me think the pump is bad. But I'm still open to the input from the experts. Funny the Dr mentioned the fuse when we both proved that straight away. |

If you are supplying power directly to the pump (verified with your mult) and it doesn’t run, it’s dead. |
