If by manually touching the relay points give you power to the fuel pump , i would assume that your relay is bad on the power side.
try to exchange the relay with one other of your fuse box . If it works fine with other relay change the relay and you'll be on your way.
Just for you to know!!!
Here is how a relay works you have a driving side and a power side . the driving side is in fact an electrically operated switch that when current is apply closes the switch that is on the power side.
Test your relay by asking somebody to put one finger on the fuel pump relay. when you have power on and of on the driving side of the relay, the other person will sence that the relay is clicking . if it desn't change the relay cause it's burnt on the driving side. if it does and you don't have power to your fuel pump chnage the relay cause it's burnt on the power side.

Check your connections. did you run the fuel pump wiring under the drivers side door sash like GM did?.. if so check for nicks in the wire or bending or cracks.. this happens.. happened to me. check your fuel pressure. 40 dollar part at an auto store. If its below 59 PSI it wont work. And blazers are very intolerable to low fuel pressure. Also try taking the negative post off your battery for a little while and then putting it back on and if you can get it started again drive around (if its safe and running decent) for at least 30 minutes to get your car computer system acclimated to a new functioning part. Did you check the fuel filter?. rule of thumb when a pump goes change the filter its always the last thing people expect because we all jump to catastrophic engine failure at the first no start moment. lol.
Make sure that all your ducks are in get my drift.. Air oxygen fuel thats the mixture you need to check all those vital parts. before pulling your head off.

yes you have to drop the tank. you will also need a fuel line tool to unhook the fuel lines. before you drop the tank see if tou can reach and wiggle the electrical connection on the top of the tank. these pumps have a pigtail issue. please rate

I assume the fuel pump fuse is good?
The only time voltage will be sent to the fuel pump will be the first 2 to 3 seconds if the starter is not engaged. You will want to crank the engine over and check for voltage on the load side of the relay, circuit #30 at the relay.
Let me know after you check.
