Well after continued troubleshooting I found that there was no voltage at the electrical leads to the main fuel pump itself. Working backwards from there I found the connector underneath the back seat bottom and found 12 V at that connector.

I tested the wires (both ground and hot) between under the seat and the connections to the fuel pump itself and they were good.

so I was confused ... I cleaned the contacts at the fuel pump (on the wires not the pump) put it back together and it started up!

unfortunately after buttoning things all back up again it stopped working so I suspected that connection under the seat. I wiggled it... reattached it and it started.

now it seems to be running so I think my problem was electrical connection related but I'm expecting it to fail again.

hopefully I'll remember this experience when it won't start in a year!
