No starting problem
Hey guys, I've done a ton of searching but I still can't seem to figure out this no start problem.
1. The fuel pump will not turn on. I got another relay, put it in and it still won't turn on when the ignition is engaged. I can hotwire it by linking the pink and the brown (I think it's brown) wire and I can hear turn on so I don't think the pump is bad.
2. The coil is getting power, but it's not sending it to the opti. I got another coil, put it in, and the same thing happened. Took that coil back, got another, replaced the ICM and the car will still just crank.
Any ideas appreciated.

When the pump is hotwired, it'll send fuel to the intake just fine. We tested the red/pink wire while I was cranking and it stayed on until I stopped cranking but no power was sent to the opti.

Question still stands, is there spark at various locations?
