well if the car runs at all the fuel pump must be turning on enough to pressurize the system. You must have jumpered the wrong plug. Or the fuel pump is only coming on intermitently.

Make sure you jumpered the correct plug and then check for voltage at the pump.

Sorry, the yellow two socket connector is on the right side of the car near the right front strut tower. Key to ON, Jumper b/t the two sockets.
