Is it possible that I fried the pump relay or some other part of the
system that allows the pump to run on its own? Seems to me like the
engine isn't getting fuel. But I'm certainly no expert.
Yes, it's possible. Try running the pump until you hear it gurgling in the
fuel tank. Let it do that for 30 seconds to a minute, as it might need the
extra time to completely fill the fuel ring of fuel. Then try to start it
again. Like Jim said, you might need to put a charge on the battery IF the
voltage falls too much more.
