check fp relay and wiring paying attention to any connections contacts etc... also check fuel pressure and fuel pressure regulator. of course this is for starters... there are many posts on forum on how to check above items so search search search and have a drink or 3

ill say check the grounds. i was out 4x4ing early this year. hit a bump pretty hard, the battery bounced and the ground at the battery came undone. my guages would work but the fuel pump wouldnt prime. it would crank but wouldnt fire up
