Today I had a chance to try a couple of the suggestions offered in this helpful thread.
Rick Dorian suggested venting the fuel rail Schrader valve to see if any gas sprayed out after cranking the motor. I tried that and nothing at all, therefore no fuel pressure present.
Mark from Toronto suggested injecting starter spray into the intake to see if the engine would fire. I atomized a bit of gasoline into a port on the manifold and cranked the motor. It jumped to life for a few seconds right away, which confirms I do not have any ignition problems, and that injectors are not getting fuel.
So my misc. fuel pump related parts are on order from eEuroparts (O-ring, new fuel line check valves and connector retainer bracket) and LesH has kindly offered me his spare Bosch fuel pump "cartridge" which I will replace.
Should be done over the weekend!
Thanks again to all,
Reg
