did this.... per several of your suggestions. Car turns over...but then there is not enough juice...and it starts sounding like a dead battery...even with the jump.

I can't hear the fuel pumps when i turn the ignition. I already switched out the fuel pump relay with a spare.

I have one more option,I suppose.... use banana jumpers to try to bypass the fuel pump relay.... to see if that will engage the fuel pumps. I will probably also get a new battery since even after a charge the one i have just doesn't seem to have anything left in it..... if someone knows what to jump that would help...although I do believe it's posted here somewhere
