Out on a limb time? 700 1989

If this was a 240 I'd easily jumper fuses to hot-wire the FI system, guessing Ignition is maybe OK, and the 30 second run is from the short pump cycle with Key On before cranking.

Jumping 700/900 fuses is harder, but can be done like this:

• Remove Intank pump Fuse 11 and improvise a jumper wire to apply voltage to the Fuse 11 terminal that is farthest away from you, i.e., toward the engine.

• You can get battery voltage from the Fuse 1 terminal closest to you, after the fuse is removed. Use a jumper wire with a flat male terminal on each end, to take voltage from F1 to F11.

The pumps will run immediately — try starting to see if it runs longer now.
If so, the jumper is bypassing a fuel problem.
If not, it's more likely ignition.


NOTE: This is from a '93 Green Book wiring diagram, which is all I have. It should work for you if Fuse 11 is for your Intank pump.
