Already swapped the Horn and EFI relay.
Do you mean test the volts while cranking the motor? Cause I havent tried that yet. Only tested with the key turned on.
Good to know about the injectors cause thats what I thought untill someone said different. I just wired them up and didnt worry about + and - cause I thought it didnt matter.

BTW after a Google search it seems other Toyota cars have a C/OPN relay that controls the fuel pump and well as injectors and they all seem to be able to remove this relay for a pump swap. Now Id guess that since the service manual says there is a C/OPN relay that I could find it but I cant!
I hate stupid porblems!

turned out i never tried to crank the motor with the fuel pump connected to the car.
i turned the key to on and didnt hear it or see fuel pressure......so i figured something was wrong.....so i took the pump out to start testing crap.
our pumps dont prime before you start the car fyi.
so once i connected the pump back up and cranked it.....bam! works

So you were trying to start the car without a fuel pump? Is that what I'm understanding? If so, I ought to give you one upside the head...

So, just trying to listen to see if the pump was priming? Didn't hear it, and assumed something was wrong....so took it out, and then was trying to start without a pump? LOL....I think I just confused myself, can someone break this down for me in a chronological order?
built his motor......put everything on.......put walbro fuel pump in.......turned the key to on to see if the fuel pump was working.......ours doesnt prime itself so he thought something was wrong.........BAM!!!

Guys guys.....
I never tried to start the motor without a pump...lol
Since I didnt hear it prime I took it out and was trying everything to get power to that fuel pump plug on the harness. As it turns out that plus doesnt see ANY power till its cranked.....which I hadnt tried.
I never TRIED to start the car without a pump......im not that stupid
Just over looked one small thing......
Keep an eye out though...I'll have a whole build thread here real soon with ton!!! of pics.

Well I wish I would of done a LSD while I was at it.
Which I'll end up doing as soon as the weather goes south in the fall, prolly with a twin disk as well.
Other then that there isnt much else to do. I could of sleeved it but didnt cause I'm prolly not going to push it to the point where I'd need them.
