Dan,
The box that has the two relays? Fuel pump and ecu relays?
I did swap relays and felt for them clicking when I inserted them with ign on. Being alone that’s the way I had to do it . Fuel pump does hum on start, as does the idle air valve .
But I’ll check the wires to those relays again today. And the black wire from coil to ecu.
Thanks
Alistair
