I have a service manual for the TRS drive. Is yours the light gray, gray, dark gray 39' that I see out by Art Van once in a while? Was for sale behind KFC forever at 10 and Gratiot.
Also, I believe that pump is an "oildyne" pump. I have the same ones. If its going one direction and not the other you probably have a bad soleniod, which is why it works when you jump it, but not at the switch. A soleniod is about $35-50 bux, depending on where you get it. I have the same issue with my starboard drive right now. I just can't tell if my issue is at the switch or the solenoid itself. I need a buddy with a test light to come down and give me a hand.

I got the problem figured out, the wires were corroded for the trim position senders.
