The car does not start unless I spray fuel into the air intake. Then it starts and runs. The main relay checks out. But when I check the power to the fuel pump it is there. The manual says to replace the pump. But the pump works when I sprayed fuel in. Is the manual right?

  If the car runs after it starts, then the fuel pump should be OK. Does this happen when the engine is cold/warm? You could have a problem with the fuel pressure leaking down, which may be from a bad check valve, which is located on the pump, but this will normally cause a no start when the engine is warmed up.
