I think we have the exact same problem. there is a coolant temp sensor that tells the computer what to make the mixture for the fuel to be- when this sensor is bad or out of range of the computer it will cause the fuel pump to not activate. the easiest way to find out if its bad is to disconnect it. its located under the intake manifold, between cylinders 3 and 4 its a 2 wire plug~ usually 1black and 1white wire... Now I have replaced this before and it works for a few months but then goes bad again... which has me leaning towards a wiring issue... but when u disconnect it go and try to start it and put the pedal to the floor and it should start but it will be really rich... and may black smoke at first and run really bad but it will smooth out and is drivable. mine went out on a road trip. thank god i knew what to do otherwise I would still be on the side of the road LOL! let me know if this helps at all.
