380SL will not start.

Hi Guys

I have this problem with a 1981 380SL. The car was running fine then sat in the driveway for about 6-7 weeks and now she will not start.



If I splash a little gas down the intake she starts right up then dies.
SO .. Check things out and no power at the fuel pump. You can run a hot wire to it and it clicks. Next check was the relay and jumping pins 1 and 2 on the connector or 30 and 87 on the relay and power to the pump! But she still will not start. So my next thought was... disconnect the fuel line at the injection system and power up the pump and see if fuel squirts out.

But here is the hard part.. Without a shop manuel ( Yes I need to get one) I can not tell what line to disconnect....
OK please go here and look at the pictures and tell me what line is the one from the fuel pump. http://www.neflnewhomes.com/mtemp/1981sl.htm

Thanks
Scott
