Theres 2 pumps, one in the tank & one on the frame below the drivers seat. Should be able to hear them run.

The inertia switch is under the dash/passenger side where the carpet ends at the firewall.

87XLT, thanks for the info. I knew about the one in the tank, the one on the frame rail is new to me, Ichanged the one in the tank in 2001. My first thought was fuel filter, but he said it was working fine then he went into a walk-in resturant, when he came out it wouldnt start, thats when I thought the inertia switch might have been tripped by somebody hitting his truck (nobody would ever notice). Anyway thanks for the help. I do believe ill be back here sooner or later.
