No fuel pressure. Today we ripped both tanks out and replaced the back one and eliminated the mid. (rusted out) Checked bothpumps and found that they both work. Also found fuse to selector switch was bad, but not visibly blown. No power to rear tank plug but have power to front connector. Think possible selector switch is bad. Gonna try bypassing it next.

Underlying problem?
I found why this thing wouldnt start. The fuel tank selector switch melted between the power wire and the wire that goes to the pump. Also melted the connector. Cut the wires and spliced them together. Started right up. My question is: could there be another problem that caused this or am I just looking for something that isnt.

I have exact same problem.I have replaced all 3 pumps, tank selector switch, all relays, replaced several wires and checked all grounds....the only thing that worked (temporary fix) is to run ignition on hot wire directly to red(hot wire) on high pressure fuel pump (on frame)....for whatever reason this makes both pumps in tank kick on when they are supposed to. The problem is this makes high pressure pump run constantly (probably not good) . Also what is weird .....anytime I unhook the power wire that I jumped to high pressure pump my truck will run/drive fine for 10 miles or so then shut off and wont start until I connect wire again....then runs perfect again. I have been trying to fix this permanently for a year or so and any help would be appreciated.....also I have read this tried and have tried everything suggested and then some.......so if you figured this out please let me know
