I have a 98' chevy K1500 Vortech 5.7 liter, which has 160,000 miles. I drove to work about 15 miles came home went to the store, about 12 miles and when I got tried to start it later in the day, it wouldn't start. The fuel pump is not pumping when I turn on the key. The fuel pump is less than a year old. And I tried changing the fuel pump relay and still nothing... I have checked all other fuses. Is there a reset button for the fuel pump or an inline fues? What else can it be. Your help will be very appreciated

Try a test light and check for power at the pump. If none and fuses and relays are ok, check wiring, could have a bare spot someplace. It happened to me! No warning just wham, no start!
