Drew...

When mine was having problems i found one of the coil wires were also corroded so bad at the coil that it wouldn't go all the way inside of the hole....that was also causing a problem..check those wire at the coil...also check the fuel pressure...you need a gauge and adapter to check by the book, but what I did was turn on the switch, let the pump build up and then i pulled the line off of the pressure side on tank...(make sure you wear safety glasses.) If the pump is getting up to the correct pressure, gas should shot out every where like a water leak in a faucet or it will be so tight the line won't come off or will be extremely hard to get off. Man those gremlins can be a PITA......Hope you get it going and keep us up to date....
