take one of the wires off the main pump, then turn the key 1 click, should hear the in-tank pump prime that is, if your pump primes on 1st turn of key. if not you'll have to crank it over and listen carefully for the sound of the lifterpump. its under the rear seat, you'll see a round black metal disc under there
