The fuel pump relay get its power from the 20ga. blue fuse link on the starter relay, also test the inertia switch and the fuel pump ground circuit.

Starter relay -Follow the positive battery cable it'll lead you right into it, for the ground dunno the wire color could be black-you need an ohmmeter to check the wire to chassis ground, no continuity means its open
