'87 LH2.2 retrofit: non-start question 200

Lucid said:
"The fuel pump doesn't run directly off the ECU. It runs off the Fuel Relay, which gets picked by the ECU when it sees ignition pulses on terminal #1."

I gotcha, but for now, I can't test the fuel relay, as it's not getting (I'm assuming it's not) a proper signal from the ECU, cuz the ECU isn't getting the proper signals from the coil/ignition system. So is there a test to see that the Fuel relay is triggering the pump? All other tests in the Bentley are fine, I'm getting the proper voltage from the ignition switch to the ECU power supply. I'm also getting 12v to the AMM power supply.

The coil is interfacing to the ecu (it's the 1 terminal which as has wires to it from the pertronix. And the resister goes to it also, I'm pretty sure).

I do get the click of the fuel/main relay with Key On.

Fuel injectors test ok, at 3.9 ohms with ignition OFF as per the Bentley. I can get a noid light for them, if needed, but I think they are ok, right?

I don't quite understand running the Fuel Relay ground ala K-jet setup, cuz I thought I'm trying to get a proper voltage pulse or signal to the ECU to time the injection sequence. But if I understand you, the K-jet fuel relay would be able to use my signal from the coil/pertonix that is 1.1volts to trigger the ground. But what kind of voltage would the k-jet relay be sending to the ecu. I may be better altering the voltage I'm getting now to match what a "normal" 2.2 setup uses, and skip the k-jet relay alltogether.
