1985, been sitting for 6 years,
I played with hotwiring the fuel pump in back. No gas is making it to the engine.
I want to get this car running, so it is worth $750, rather than a $250 parts car.

First, replace the fuel filters. On the S3's, the pump will only come on when cranking so make sure the key is in the right position. Your best bet is to get fresh gas anyways, so drain all of the old gas and try blowing compressed air through the lines to free any debris with fuel line disconnected from the carb and before the fuel pump also.
