I would check the wiring and plug to the ignition module.
When you start the truck, the switch sends power directly to the fuel pump relay.
After it starts, the ignition module sends pulses from the distributor to the computer. This tells the computer the engine is running, so the computer sends a signal to the fuel pump relay to keep it energized. If the computer doesn't see the pulses from the distributor, it assumes the engine is not running, and does not turn on the fuel pump relay.

i've check the plug and all seems to be ok there is however what seems to be a removeable fuse link could that need to be replaced.
There is a capacitor mounted on my coil.
Should I replace that as well?
Could either of these items have play in my prob ?
I've replaced everything else: cap , rotor, coil, ingntion mod, plugs and wires.
Maybe my fuel relay is going bad?
