I would check into fuses and relays first before dong anything else. Being you tapped the relay and then it tried again I'd be led to believe that's the source of your problem.

Does the CEL come on when you turn the key on?

EFI Relay check....

It would be easiest if you did have any CEL's, since your OBDII it should be no problem (if anything pops). Besides, the relay in the right kick panel is for the heater, sooooooo. I would make sure all the fuses were good first (use a multimeter, dont visually check them). Of course you could buy a wiring diagram if its any use. Some are as low as 20 dollars on good ol ebay.

when you jump the pins do you hear the pump turn on? have someone put their ear on the back seat behind the driver while you jump those pins..

with the paper clip in there as i stated it will bypass all relays and fuses but the EFI relay and EFI fuse..both are located in the fuse box on the drivers side under the hood.
