since the 96 would have a 3800 and you put a 3400 in it maybe incompatible fuel pumps?
do you wanna just connect a battery to it and see if you can get power?

yes that would be ok for now but we did take the pump difference in consideration so we swapped the 3.4 pump and tank also

purple black and grey are the three coming from the sending unit/pump and also why is the the fuel gauge pegged out at full?bad ground perhaps?

yes bad ground and since they share a ground that would be why your pump isnt working lol, looks like you need to fix that and you should be good, black is ground good luck

They run inside and outside of the car.
You will find a connector that is the pass-thru of the issue.
It’s located behind the rear seat.
It has a triangular flange.
