Default ok, here is my frustrating fuel problem.

well I got my swap in, drove it around the neighborhood (wasn't legal yet!) was happy with it, put the rear interior in, hasn't run more than twice sense. I would get in, wouldn't here the pump prime up. I figured relay, used a friends relay, nothing. I swapped pumps out, nothing. I can run a straight wire to the pump and it cuts on and starts pumping. I can't get it to switch on and prime with the key though, only way I can get power to the pump is by either straight wire from battery or through a switched power. Would the car crank up and run and no problems occur if the pump was wired to a power source instead of through the ecu and relay per say? I am highly frustrated, had to put the tools down and walk away from it last night (that bad, sure you guys know all about that!)anybody ever had a similiar problem, experience, advice, support........something! Help a H-Ter out!

did you check fuses??? probably a stupid question but we have all overlooked them at least once or twice in our lives, only to find out it was something that simple.

yeah, should have put that in here (can you tell I am frustrated!) no fuses are fine. I don't get power back through that wire that plugs into the pump. I tested it using the method of putting the probe into the yellow wire plug and grounding it, and I tested it using the method of putting the ground in the ground prong and the probe in the yellow one. I would love to just rerun those wires if I knew it was just the wires that were bad.........like knicked or something, I just don't know.........
