I finally realized you meant to check the pump wires separately - key on
Body ground to pump feed - 6 volts
Body ground to pump ground - 0 volts
Body ground to relay - 6 volts
Fuel pressure cranking - 0
And I still have 12 V prime and 11 V cranking.
I did have help yesterday and while cranking I beat the tank with rubber mallet - no joy.
Seeing I have almost no testing equipment I'll have it towed to my nephew's shop,
let him pull his hair out.
Thanks very much for all the comments, I gotta get my lawn mowers going.

Please give us a measurement of the fuel pump ground wire during cranking or running and then with just the key on.
