You did not say what year, engine size are what you are working on. NEED TO KNOW.
Do you have spark at the plug wire were it hooks to the spark plug.
Is the fuel pump actually running. Turn the ignition to the on position without starting the engine and you should hear the pump run for a few seconds. If you do not check the fuel pump fuse and fuel pump relay. If they are both good replace the fuel filter as it may be clogged. Lastly, it is possible that new fuel pump is defective.Is the fuel pump actually running.

Bad fuel pump?
Is new fuel pump working? If so turn key to "On" position without starting car for about 5 sec. to prime pump and lines - Do this twice and then try to start Is new fuel pump working?

Your new fuel pump is apparently defective. A fuel pump is required to supply fuel to the engine, and the engine cannot run (and of course not start) without a supply of fuel.
the 98 and 99 Plymouth neon's do not have a fuel filter, they have a fuel screen that right in line with the fuel pump. I found this out only yesterday when I was had to replace my fuel pump. If your car is not starting and blowing fuses for the fuel pump, you need a new fuel pump.
check fuse for fuel pump or may need a new fuel pressure regulator, its on the fuel rail.
A few possibilities could be the fuel pump relay is bad, the fuel pressure regulator is bad, the fuel pump circuit wiring may be bad and maybe the new pump is bad.
new fuel pump in my 95 grand am se but still not working
try bypassing the fuel pump, and directly injecting fuel, this will tell you if the problem is the pump, the lines, or further ahead
Press schrader valve. If no fuel is there check fuse,
Fuel pump sensor relay
The best way to see if the fuel pump relay is good or bad is just replacing it with a new one. Be sure and check the fuel pump fuse to make sure it is not blown. Also be sure and replace the fuel filter as it may be clogged. If all this is good and the fuel pump still will not run is more than likely defective. In fact the pump can be running and still not be able to pump fuel.
