[DMCForum] Re: very frustrated!! - starting problem

["Brian" <TK581@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Okay - I didn't bother test starting it because with the jumper (a 
godd one) in place and a full battery I'm getting 9.5volts at the 
pump.  I do not hear the pump either (with ignition turned or off).  
I might replace the new pump with my old one to check to see if I 
get a different result (I don't think my old pump was ever broken, I 
just replaced it as a revamp)  - should I even bother with that?  SO 
I'm pretty sure that the relay is bad becasue I get no voltage when 
it is place and at least I get 9.5 when I have the jumper in place. 
I hope to have some more info by tomorrow evening...  :)
