Default 99'Tahoe No start, New battery/alternator

I just replaced the power steering pump, after sitting 6 months. I got nothing. So I replaced battery and alternator . I hear the fuel pump and fuel going swoosh in tank. But it doesnt seem to be getting gas to engine. Im doing this alone. Please any advice. I'm on a fixed income and already spent $600 +. Please save a woman in distress.Daughter of diseased Mechanic. Former owner of North StAte Auto dismantlers and Kens All American auto on Evergreen in Sacramento California.

Just because you can hear the fuel pump doesn't mean tjat it is creating enough pressure to run the engine. Try spraying some gas or starter fluid into the throttle body. If it starts and runs for a few seconds then it is a fuel delivery problem and most likely will need the fuel pump replaced. Also replace the fuel filter.
