No Start

I have an 85 911 that had been sitting a while. Wouldn't start so i started poking around and the fuel pump fuse was fairly corroded. Cleaned it up and and she started right up. did a few projects, fuel tank, sending unit, torsion bars, shocks, brakes, all the fuses (several were corroded). Started it several times throughout the process - no problems. Today, i drove it about 100 feet in my driveway and it stalled. now it won't start. no noise from fuel pump. starts with starter fluid, but dies. Replaced the DME, nothing. no power at the fuse. jumped it to #6 and hear sort of a click from the fuel pump but no whirl like it is running.
fuel pump gone? relay?
any ideas? thanks

Jump your fuel pump if it spins it's good...
It's fuel related through..

Thanks seareef. i did jump it and only heard sort of a clicking noise, so spinning. would a bad fuel pump cause no power at the fuse? or is that another problem?

On the motronic I don't think you get power to the fuse until the engine is turning over. In my car I have a custom chip that primes the system for a few seconds and then it goes silent until you start the car.

If you put a positive and a negative on that fuel pump and disconnect the other wires basically jump start it and it doesn't spin then it sounds like it's the fuel pump to me no power at the fuse I think it's intermittent only having power constantly at the fuses when the car is running..
