so when the key is in the ON positon it i can hear the fuel pump humming but when i try to turn the key it wont crank over, so i thought it mighy be a wrong starter wire so i got the one with the black and yellow but when i put the key in the on positon it just cranks over with no power from the FP.

So you've got spark, jump your fuel connectors and see what happens. You say that it ate up the main harness, did you reconnect all the wires properly? good connections? no shorts?

Sounds like your fuel pump is only running in high voltage mode. As soon as it tries to cut down to low voltage, the pump dies. Check to make sure your fuel pump resistor is plugged in.

i checked and rechecked everything so i swaped back to the OG harnness after i cut and spliced a few wires and the same thing. i pulled the fuel pump adn bench tested it and it worked fine but i did notice that the bottem ruber gruomet kinda leakes will that matter because its in the take and air tight?
