Testing Fuel Pump Relay...

#1

I have an 85 GTi that sat in my backyard for a couple of years. It
does not run. I was told to turn the key halfway and listen for the
transfer pump. I did that and heard nothing and was then told to
test/ buy a new fuel pump relay. Is there any way i can test this
before i buy a new one?

Thanks

Yes there is a way to test the fuel pump relay while it's out of the car.

Do you know how to use a ohm meter?

jumper terminals 30 & 87 and see if the pump runs.
