I believe there is a fuel pump relay within the integrated control module(at least that's what is called on my 87 Taurus).. it's the black box on top of the radiator shroud.. newer models call it the ccrm, constant control relay module.. on the earlier models such as mine i don't believe the individual relays are replaceable, however you can drill out the rivets on the box to expose the inner workings, maybe you can take it further from there..
