il?
If you don't have a VOM (volt ohm meter) or the equivalent you will need to buy or acquire one.
Step 1: Can you read "12 volts" at coil + when the ignition switch\key is in the on position?
Step 2: With the wire to the OPSS\fuel pump connected to coil + can you read 12 volts at the distal (OPSS) end when the switch\key is on?
Remember: The OPSS will not pass electricity to the fuel pump until the engine starts and the oil pressure is up.
