1.) open the trunk and have someone turn the key to the on position. If you hear a whirl noise coming out of the trunk, then your fuel pump is good.
2.) Have you checked the fuel pressure at the fuel rail? If not check to see if there is pressure at the fuel rail.
NOTE: MAKE SURE YOU HAVE PROTECTION ON, AND PLENTY OF RAGS
Remove the cover to the fuel pressure check shrader valve. Take a flat blade screw driver and gently press on the pin in the shrader valve to see if fuel shoots out. Normal pressure at the fuel rail is 40 to 50 PSI. If there is no pressure at the fuel rail, Suspect the fuel filter. My 1997 Intrepid I had to replace the fuel filter because I was getting no to very little pressure at the fuel rail, and mine now starts right on up with no problems.
