is there a fuel pump reset in the trunk. If you pushed it bumper to bumper
it may need to be reset.

no thinks it is a power problem and not the pump look at the fuse box
by the battery and look at the wires by that box to see if here is
some rubbed through look for a white wire with a red stripe hat is the
main power wire off the key switch that runs the pump and other
things

thank you all for the ideas they were helpful. What the problem ended
up being was a defective new fuel pump regulator/ filter. and fuel
pump key on would have pressure when cranking the pressure and the
volume would drop enough the the car would not run. seplaced pump
again and it works fine.
