Re: Trouble starting '89 325iX

You can more easily test the fuel pump operation by jumpering a relay in 
the fuse panel under the hood.  The relay is energized only if the engine 
is turning, activating the fuel pump. This may be through the AFM as Gary 
suggests or some other signal, I'm not sure.  The Bentley manual tells you 
how. I'd elaborate but since I just moved I can't find my Bentley manual 
right now!
