Get a fuel pressure tester and get the actual reading from the fuel rail.

 

Well that is a good idea if the truck would stay running. Since it wont run i cant get a reading. I just ordered a fuel pressure regulator, so we will see what that does.

 

you can get a reading off the rail without the engine being on, just turn the key and the pump primes the system and you can get a reading

The fuel pump is electrical.

So i got the regulator today and discovered it was the wrong one after i had the fuel pump assembly out and disassembled. However, i did notice the new "fuel hose" that came with the new pump was not tight on the nipples. It is a cheap plastic hose that wont tighten all the way. I took it off and replaced it with real fuel line, put it all back together and it fired right up and ran perfect!

 

So does that mean you replaced the fuel pump or not?

 

yes the fuel pump was replaced.
