Hello classic Zr's.     I am having fuel pump-electrical/ignition (mystery solution) "issues" with my 1977280.  I am trying to find an owner, mechanic or repair shop that has extensive knowledge of fuel pump electrical circuitry.  I can provide an in-depth, write-up of everything that been done/results to date...it is a bit lengthy but will be helpful to anyone trying to resolve.  I had onsite assistance before Christmas from a Z owner who had got me to where I am but now is not contact ##.  I live in the Asheville-Hendersonville NC area.  Any contact and assistance in the WNC or upstate SC Greenville/Spartanburg area is greatly appreciated!!

my name is Doug . My email address is dbparker54@yahoo.com. My mobile # is 727/804-8678.    Thank you for any contact you can help me with

Have you straight wired the pump yet to see if it's running?  That will bypass all the switches and relays.  There's a positive and negative terminal on the pump to make sure its pushing and not pulling.  Positive is in the front.  Thanks @Blue for the pictures.

 There's a switch in the AFM that cuts power to the pump on a '77.  You can shove a screwdriver in the throat and hold the flap open to see if that runs it.  The one on the right is OE.  The flap has that small circle with the bolt threaded in it.
