actually , the more i think about it the more i realize my fingers got ahead of my brain on that one.  If you check for power on the tan light green wire to ground, your just going to run your pump full time.  its the same point electrically as the eec self test conn where you pull codes.



So if you pulled your readings with the tan light green grounded out, it appears all is well with power delivery of your fuel pump circuit.

Did the pump run with the Key on and the TAN/ LightGreen wire grounded ?
You can ground this wire back at the fuel pump relay also just by probing it with a stick pin and gator clip it to chassis ground or........ ground it up at the eec self test conn.

If your are able to get the pump to run with the tan light green grounded at the fuel pump relay but not at the eec self test connector, then the wire is broken either up at the eec self test path or more likely the path leading up to the EEC.

Your first complaint was you could not hear the pump prime at all,, did you hear it run?



 NO i didn't here my pump run because i no it is dead (bench tested) and my new one won't be here till mid week, at least i know for now all my wiring is good to go, Thanks for ALL your help !!!,,,,,, YOU ARE THE MAN!!!!

I will let you know iff she starts right up when i get my new pump in. In the mean time my son is cleaning/painting like he!! up under my car and doing a  good job at that!!

Thanks again, Joe :bowdown:

A good word of advice,,,
ask for a fuel pump from the 3.8 supercharged cougar.

they go right in the stock shock absorber rubber boot and they do about 90Lph vs your cars stock 60Lph.,, plus they are only about 45 bux.
You will get only the pump btw, nothing else.
