well i tried that and no luck... i am not hearing the pump when i crank the engine... i am feeling the fuel pump relay when i crank the engine though.. so i know the fuel pump is not getting power somewhere.

well if you have good spark, and you tried spraying in fuel with no results, then you have might have a problem with timing or compression
