Dude if you were here right now you would probably be laughing your ass off. get to listen to me curse my dad for not being an electrician and myself for ever liking something not built by Ford lol. Really wishing I had joined the army as a mechanic, at least I would have learned to hate cars then.

As far as the +B and FP thing goes all you have to do is RTFM. In fact you ought to just sit down and read it until your eyes pop out. You'll be a lot better off.
The Army will not teach you what you need to know. They will teach you what they want you to know.

Figured that, I was more talking about they would teach me to hate cars before I ever decided to get so involved with one lol

And sandbags! Whoever invented those should be kicked in the nuts, I'd shake his hand after though
So I did the +B FP thing and still no start, everything is back installed and I'm just gonna go get a COR tomorrow and try that :/
+B to FP bypass all that stuff. COR, fuel pump relay, everything. It applies power directly to the pump.

No this is my old 87 NA that was running until last week, car sat for a long time but fired right up when I got a new battery in it, was moving it in my driveway when it just stalled out and died, sprayed starter fluid into the intake and it fired, so I knew I was getting spark, but no fuel :/

Dammit! That's what I get for not looking at what section I'm in, thanks JJ. So jumping +B to FP isn't gonna solve my problem most likely
NAs do have a COR. My bad. As I said +B to FP bypasses all that stuff. With them jumped and the key on the pump should run. The switch in the AFM keeps it running after the engine starts. Pushing on the AFM vane should also start the pump but if the pump won't run with +B/FP jumped something else is wrong. All you need to get +B is the main relay and if the MIL comes on with the key the relay is working.

Like JJ said, since the +B to FP jump bypasses everything, no point in trying another COR. Are you sure there is enough fuel in there to start the car? Not going by what the gauge says but did you physically put enough in to start the car?
