It sounds like the fuel pump is bad. Have you checked the fuel pressure? Here is the "HOW TO" for checking the pressure. Let me know what you find. Also, if you need the gauge, most parts stores will lend or rent them.

To answer the other question, the fuel pump is in the tank. However, you could even have a plugged fuel filter.
