There should be a fuel filter on the frame rail, but if its never been changed then the pump may have failed by this point. If you find the small pressure test port on the fuel rail, you can buy a pressure test kit for pretty cheap from Harbor freight, it comes with the small Ford fuel rail adapter, they are the most common in these kits. Just pull the fuel pump relay or unplug the inertia switch on the passenger side kick panel, let it run down on fuel pressure just to be sure, put a rag around the port and screw the adapter on. You should have about 45psi of pressure with the key On and it should hold that pressure for awhile. It might get up to 40psi roughly, but then when started you might see it drop right off. It has pretty high mileage, so this is when issues will start to show up unfortunately.
