Fuel pump not working now 700

Chris, thanks for the clear diagnostic procedure.
I put power on the pink wire and could here a faint whirring from the pump.
I then jumped pins 30 and 87/2 at the fuse box and could here a faint whirring.
tried to start car with the jumpered fuse box and it refused to start.
Put a tiny splash of fuel and a spritz of starter fluid in the hose at the filter box - she fired up for maybe 3-4 seconds and stopped.
This is a mystery to me. How can the pump be running, but no fuel gets to the intake? Before i started messing with the IAC the car started and ran, it would run at very very high rpm, but it did run.
Oh well, probably will part out the car. called a couple of wreaking yards and they were not interested in a volvo this old. it was a pretty good run, 30 years is a long time for a car.
Thanks again,
Ron
