I bought a new fuel pump, installed it, jumped the relay contacts to bring voltage to the pump and then I could hear the pump running, and I could hear the lines throughout the car fill up with fuel. Then I started to hear a leaking noise. Turns out, I have a leak where the line (i think it's the return line - it's where a small hose connects to the front of the tank right by where the lines enter the car through the hole under the right rear seat). With fuel in the lines now, I was able to get the engine to fire up a bit, so I think once a new hose is fitted to fix the leak, it should run in no time. Hopefully in the next few days. Fun stuff!
