Make sure there is spark at one of the spark plug and then all you will need is fuel. Listen for the electric fuel pump when you turn on the key. If you hear that, check fuel pressure at the fuel rail.

I would lean towards needing to drop the tank, or just move the bed, either way, remove and replace the faulty fuel pump.
