240DL No Fuel - Relay check 200 1987

My wife's car stopped running, she's got my truck again and it is prime upland hunting season (my dogs are counting on me to get this thing going). Can anyone help a brick out!

I have been referencing the Haynes manual (Volvos 1976-1993 Gasoline models #97020). Here is where I am...

When jumping fuses 4 and 6 the main fuel pump runs.

The manual indicates with the ignition on, jumping terminals 30 and 87/2 in the relay connector will run the pump. I am not finding that to be the case. However termial 85 is hot so jumping terminals 85 to 87/2 runs the pump.

The manual instructs to test for voltage on terminal 87/2 when cranking and there just never is, that is whether the relay is plugged into the connector or not.

None of this seems to help with performing a Fuel Relay check? It seems that determining if the relay is operational would be a bit more straight forward.

Any help filling in where the manual leaves off? Are the differences an indication of something else? It would sure be appreciated,

Sincerely,

- Mike
