Per your number 4:
1) Replaced Battery Fuse: High draw at 12.3+ .
2) Replaced Fuel Pump Fuse (last fuse in - all fuses in): High draw at 13.1+. Fuel pump did not kick on.
Cycled on/off key ignition a few times with negative (-) lead still not connected to battery.
Touched negative (-) lead to negative (-) battery terminal, fuel pump came on.
Attempted to start a few times, negative lead touching by hand, not bolted on, seemed to attempt to turn-over, not just clacking sound as previous attempt, but, no joy.
Disconnected all, removed battery, still showing 12.8.
Thoughts LF - any are appreciated.
Thank you - Dave D
