James, Check the schrader valve to see if you have fuel pressure there. It's located at the rear of the intake on a fuel line just in front of the fire wall.

Well it has spark, no fuel pressure when the key is used, pumps works when direct power is applied. Pressure at schrader valve.....I dont have the key fob with this vehicle, only the key. Could something with the alarm system be keeping it from applying power to the pump when the key is used?
As for the mechanics/shops that gave up, too bad, I am not giving up, it has to be something simple since the vehicle was running and turned off at the gas pump and now it will not start. Any other things you guys can think of, I have time to work on it since I can drive my truck.
