If your fuel pump does RUN before cranking the motor (START) you have anomaly in your wiring connection. Unplugging the AFS (air flow switch) is a common band-aid trick for those motor having problem with residual pressure loss. So making the fuel run PREMATURELY for ‘76~’83 SC is NOT NORMAL.
First and fore most, there should be no power to terminal #30 (FP relay socket) with the ignition switch @ OFF position. Your test result is flawed.

Tony,
Thanks for clarifying, it does seem strange to me that the car was running for the last number of years the way I described it and now it isn't.
Maybe I have a pre-76 engine in the car or as you suggest the wiring is abnormal. I'll continue to do some research and investigation.
Thanks for your help!
Kevin
