Gl 1200 Interstate

I've got an 84 Interstate with fuel pump issues. There's voltage to the pump, but apparently not enough. According to my voltmeter, I have voltage, but almost no amperage. I thought it might be a groundproblem, so I jumpered ground directly to the battery, still nothing. Continuity says the ground is fine. I replaced the fuel pump relay, that works. And the fuel pump works because I jumpered that to find out if it did. Now, according to my wiring diagram, the current should draw from the coil pack, it runs on all cylinders. But I'm not totally clear if the power comes from that, the voltage regulator, or the engine control module.



I'm stumped, not sure what to look at now- HELP!

The pump will only run for a few seconds after you turn the key. If the motor is not running by then it shuts off. Very vague recollection. I think it's so the pump would quit if there was fire rather than keep pumping and feeding the fire.

Pump will run for a few seconds?
AND WHEN IT DOESN'T I should look where?
Mine doesn't , never has. Probably why I have to use either in the spring. Does run after it starts (or sputters a bunch)
20 years I've been fighting the spring start. If I wasn't so lazy, was thinking a momentary contact switch to prime the thing

Excuse the hi jack.
But as long as your warmed up to pump electricity, seemed like a good place
