Best Answer

Have a helper stand at the fuel filler door with the fuel cap off and listen carefully. Turn on the ignition without starting the engine. You should hear the pump run for a few seconds and then shut down. If not, check the fuel pump fuse & relay. If they are good the pump is more than likely defective. Even if the pump is running that does not mean it is pumping fuel. The fuel filter can be clogged or the pump can be bad and still be running. A fuel pressure test at the fuel rail will verify the condition of the pump. Replace the fuel filter first thing if you have not done so in the last 50,000 miles.
