I replaced the fuel pump relay, fuel pump, and sending unit. The fuse are good and their power
to the fuse box, on the sending unit I get power
to the purple wire none to the gray wire. Is there
a secondary oil pressere switch thats tied into the
fuel pump relay. And Do you have any suggestions
on what to look for to get this thing going.

The oil pressure closes the switch in the OPSU to power the fuel pump as soon as it starts up. See below

Subject: fuel pump
Thanks for your help and rsponse.
I put in a new opsu but still couldnt get it
going, could something in the engine contol
module causing me problems.
Thanks again Jim

The ECM the only thing it does is energizes the the fuel pump for 2secs.

Check the fuel pressure- if its normal-check the injectors for pulse
