Default 02 TA will not start

I am at a loss. Vats bypassed, relays swapped, starter passed test and still will not turn over. Any further ideas?

Do you hear the fuel pump prime with "key on, engine off" ?

It should prime for 2 seconds when you first turn the key..

It acts like it did when the Vats took a crap. I hear a relay click, and starter relay has power. Battery is good also.

Yes....fuel pump primes. I am at a total loss. I have one key that is practically brand new, and thinking it was the pellet on the old key, but still nothing.

Anyone hear about ignition switch going faulty on these cars? Only thing I have not inspected yet.

Everything works like it should. Just not turning over. Starts by popping the clutch but I do not feel like finding hills every place I drive.
