Intermittent fuel pump priming issue, SOS!!!


My fuel pump was priming this morning as I was attempting to get the timing set after a motor swap. Its not priming anymore and Ive done some of the testing but I don't know where to go from here. I jumper-ed the computer test ground and fuel pump test connector but the fuel pump didn't turn on and I have less than 1/2 a volt at the pink/blACk wire on the fuel pump relay. I DO get 12v at the yellow wire at the fuel pump relay KOEO. I don't have any voltage at the inertia switch but I do know that it isn't tripped and its new. I hard wired the pump and turns on so that isn't the issue. I also check fuse links, all looked OK and look new so I'm stumped.

The red wire from the EEC power relay should be giving 12v to the inertia switch but I don't have any voltage there. From there it goes to the fuel pump relay eventually powering on the pink/black wire which turns the pump on. Am I getting warm?

Interestingly enough as I was testing the tps I heard a "click" type sound so for giggles I turned off and on again and sure enough it was priming. Hooked up the other battery I had charging and once again no prime. EEC relay turns on...If I jumper the pink/black to the yellow the pump turns on!!! Please help?

Ive been working on this motor swap for 3 weeks straight and desperately need some help getting it going so I can get to work tomorrow!!!...any and all suggestions welcome!


Okay, as far as test results go (KOEO) I get the following:
EEC Relay:
red wire/org&blk wire 1.42 volts
red wire 12v
black/orange 1.42
green/tan? 1.42
Fuel pump relay:
tan/black 1.42v
red/blk 1.42v
yellow 12v
pink/black 0
Red/Green wire at ignition switch has 12v
