Sorry, but I gave misinformation at the beginning of the post because I was on the wrong freaking wires, but there was still a major problem and I finally figured it out. Actually there were two problems. I bench tested the fuel pump right at the pump itself. I didn't try the external connector on the pump module when I had it on the bench. When I finally determined that I actually did have 12v at the gray wire on the connector I had to go back over a few things. I applied 12v directly to the external connector on the FP module and the freaking thing didn't run. Removed the pump again and check at the pump and it runs, but the outer connector it doesn't. Applied power at the upper end of the connector ont the pump while it was disconnected from the module and it runs. The + connector was loaded with varnish from the gasoline and I cleaned the hell out of it, reconnected it to the top of the modlue, applied power directly to the external of the module again and the pump ran. NOT DONE YET!!
I reconnected everything and NOTHING! GRRRRR! I disconnected the connector mounted in the trunk base and applied power directely to that connector and it ran. Checking the other side of that connector I got 12v at the right place. I cleaned this connector and spread the pins to make them tighter and VOILA! Finally it works with everything connected.

I didn't mean to give misinformation, but I was simply on the wrong wire and chasing ghosts. Still, this ended up being a double problem and hopefully my frustration with it will help someone else that finds themselves in a similar situation.

Thanks for trying to help.
