Good diagnostics but let's assume FLPlum has limited experience with this method.

We don't want sparks while we have fuel splashing onto a T shirt. So either jump 12 volts to the yellow wire on the starter relay or disconnect the coil or disconnect the ignition or ground the high tension lead to crank the engine.

If you absolutely can not find a suitable T shirt, run the fuel line into a container.
