Lightbulb 1983 f250 fuel pump problem

I recently converted a 83 f250 from left to right hand drive the conversion is now complete but when I went to start the engine I had no fuel. All the wiring seems ok but without a wiring diagram there may be a wire astray.If anybody has a diagram for an 83 with a 460 dual tank dual battery config please feel free to help,It would be very appreciated. THANKS!!!

Mechanical or electric fuel pump(s)?

Ford started putting elect. pumps on the 460's in 83 or 84. My '84 has electrics. I also have an inertia safety switch (fuel shut off) on the interior firewall near where the passenger would put their left foot.

If electric that switch may have tripped or been damaged/inadvertantly removed. Without that operational you will have nothing.
