the circuit opening relay IS the fuel pump relay.


with F/P and GND jumped, check to see if you have voltage on the Blue/Red wire on the fuel pump itself.

Cool, thanks I wasn't sure.
I just ordered the relay it should be here in a few days. They seemed to think it was going to be something other than the relay, but he thought this was a good place to start.

It was the fuel pump relay. I got one from Planet Miata. I installed it this afternoon, and the car immediately started right up.

It is the yellow relay socket next to the steering column. May need to take off the metal knee plate to see it
