f150 missing fuel

Re: 1989 F150 - No fuel flow. Anyone able to give me more info on this situation. Like, are the pump(s) for this vehicle inside of each of the tanks or is it an external frame mounted single pump type ? If external, where does the supply v. come from ? Is it a constant 12v. from the pump relay under the hood ? Is the relay tripped from the key switch being turned on, or is power supplied to it from the e.c.m. ? Also, between the tanks and the motor in the fuel line run is what I describe as some sort of junction unit with 4 fuel lines running to it. I tryed tracing the lines but doesn't make sense. Is this used for switching between duel tanks or something else ? Any advice offered will be greatly appreciated.
