1997 volvo penta 4.3 gsplkd fuel pump will not run when starting. The engine will start if gas is sprayed into the carb. I jumpered the fuel pump with 12.7V from the battery & it pumps ok. Checking voltage @ the connection for the pump while starting I only get 10.7V. Checking the relay connection, 30 to 86 is 12.7 V. 30 to 87 is 1.35V with the key on & 10.7V in start position. Would the voltage be too low to run the pump? Why might it be this low?
Also checking @ the ignition it is 12.7V in and only 10.7V out with key in start position.
