Hello. This truck had been running. All of the sudden it stopped. It will turn over. We don't hear the fuel pump clicking on. We dropped the tank and replaced the fuel pump. The pump still doesn't appear to be getting any power. The fuel filter is new.

Talking to the neighborhood auto parts store they have suggested replacing numerous parts :-) Could you by chance help us narrow down what might be the most likely causes?

Thank you so much!

I would do some checking first as you can replace parts till your broke. So have you checked to see if there is power at the pump. If no power then check the fuse and the fuel pump relay as these are you most likely causes.

When a fuel pump goes out it can do so one of two ways either it can quit and stop working or it can fail intermittently causing the engine to stall or not start.
