, do the following
put top in service position
remove engine cover carpet & engine cover
DO THE NEXT WITH ENGINE COLD!!!!

Remove fuel cap
Wait 1 minute, then put back on

Go to pass side of engine. Using a small screwdriver, press the schrader valve on the fuel line. Does fuel come out? Valve may have a cover on it, if so, remove.

If no fuel, turn key to ON position
Do above again, any fuel come out?

If no, remove fuel pump relay (gray with pink wriring)
make a jumper wire
Jumper fuel pump
turn key to on, dont start car
Go press schrader valve at fuel rail.
Any fuel come out?

If the last answer is No, then you need a new fuel pump.

Some would say to jumper the fuel rail, turn key to on and listen for pump (it's under the battery). But depending on how much gas is in the tank you might not hear it run. I know I didn't with 3/4 full tank 2 weeks ago.
Wow... I need to research where the "schrader valve on the fuel line" is. Perhaps I will upload a picture of my engine bay and you can circle it for me.

Thank you Stl-986.

P. S. So.... you don't think it is dirty plugs, right? I was SO hoping it would be 11 year old plus plugs...
