My truck quit running while driving it. It will turn over and try to start but won't. I'm guessing the fuel pump because when I turn the key on I don't here it. Is this correct or something else?

Chances are you're correct. You need to check fuel pump pressure to confirm. Here is a how to for checking:

You will need a fuel pressure gauge. Most parts stores will lend or rent them.

Check it and let me know what you find.
