When you turn the key to the ON position, do you hear the fuel pump prime for a second or two? If not, I'd replace the fuel pump relay. Easy/cheap repair. Also, check the inertia switch to make sure it's not tripped and the at the wire is securely attached.

HMMM maybe an electric problem??....pull the fuse and see if your getting 12 to it then test from the fuse to the pump and make sure you got continuity (dont think thats how its spelled)

Also check for power at the relay. As suggested before, have you checked the inertia switch??
