try cranking it and holding down the fuel cutoff switch, passenger side door in the dash.

How does he know it is getting fuel? Do you hear the noise of the pump?

boy.. lack of maint enough to drop warranty is a scary thought..

Fuel system repairs alone can get upwards of 8-10K. Unless you have the means for self repair or you are getting the truck for 5K, I think It would pass.
