Fixed fuel pump

Had some free time today as one of my classes was canceled and decided to do some digging. Checked the wires running back to the tank and they all seemed good and solid, so that can't be the issue. I jumpered two of the eec pins together to keep the fuel pump on the whole time the key was on (pins e and a). This would help in my trouble shooting. I then went to the roll over switch and pulled out the connector, reason being i can test the voltage coming from the relay. Other than the relay it would be the fusible link which was good as we had spark. One of the wires was zero off zero on so it must be the output wire. Next one was zero off .34 volts on. Humm .34 volts i don't think that will run a fuel pump not sure what you think. Ran out a got a new relay at napa plugged her in. Primed the pump 5 or so times and fired her up, she stumbled a bit but she caught (tank has bad gas too). As dave from daves farm says "She lives to die another day" I hope this can help people out with a similar problem. Multimeters are you best friend.
