Son has a 1998 Bonneville which has sat for about 4 years,decided would like to use it again and we can't get it started.Added some fresh fuel to the tank but no go.Put car on blocks crawled under and unhooked inline filter to check for flow but nothing,(wife turned on key) checked for power going back to plug,nothing.(Will check again tomorrow not sure if I had a good test light ground)Just wondering if I apply power using my booster pack using grey and a black wire in plug going to pump can I test to see if pump will run?

I would replace the complete assembly.
On this model year I believe you have to drop the gas tank.
Starting in 2000 they have an access panel in the trunk which makes the job a whole lot easier.
I would not want to have to drop the tank twice if something else is wrong with the pump.
Go with the complete assembly.
