Since you have an "L-Jet" 1.8 motor, the only way that the fuel pump will run is when the engine is cranking. The air flow meter controls the fuel pump. To test the fuel pump when the engine is not running, you remove the square black cover over the air flow meter (about a 3 x 4) cover that is kinda glued on & will need to be pryed off. Then, with the ignition on, if you manually turn the air flap, you should hear the fuel pump.
Since you car is a 1976, the fuel pump is located in the front trunk under the gas tank. It may be hard to hear the fuel pump so you might need to use something to hold the air flap open well listening up front.
Another thing, the fuel pump relay is a duel relay bolted to the side of the battery & get corroded very easily. Unplug & clean up with a wire brush & this may help.
