As you have probably guessed, the fuel pump will not start until the engine is running, apart from the initial few seconds run when the ignition is first switched on.
To get the pump to run, are you removing the relay and jumpering pins #30 & #87 (they are labelled #3 & #5 on the relay).
When you switch on the ignition, the pump should run - if not you have a pump problem....
