Are you missing anything else, besides gas? Engine cranking, did you check for spark at the plugs and fuel injector pulse? Any applicable trouble codes? Did you check voltage and ground to fuel pump motor, before replacing anything?

1996 Tahoe 4x4 5.7 Vortec dies when I turn the steering wheel periodically, when I start up and pull into the street, then will start up again and then dies, or if I get gas, and pull out and turn wheel it...

The 1990's chevy trucks(all of them) had fuel pump and grounding problems:

1. Check the fuel pump ground strap next to the gas tank as it could be broken from the connector or just loose.

2. Have a fuel pressure test done on the fuel lines at the engine top. (Note: if there isn't enough fuel pressure, replace the fuel pump.)

My 1996 Chevy Tahoe wont start unless you put gas into the throttle body

Will it continue to run aftre you manually prime it? If so, you are lossing fuel pressure over time which may indicate a leak in a line and or a faulty fuel pump. (low pressure) Could also be a restriction in fuel line (filter) Frozen water in the line is not unheard of in cold climates.

Tahoe will turn over but doesn't start. Just replaced the fuel pump about 4-5 months ago. The fuel filter was replaced as well and there's enough gas in it. What could be the problem? I read about not...

Have you tried to start it with starting fluid? Sometimes the aftermarket fuel pumps don't last long. Especially if the filter is not placed right on the bottom of the new pump. You should be able to take off the gas cap and hear the pump run for about 3-5 seconds when you turn the ignition on. If you don't hear the pump running then it is either your pump is bad again or the relay under the hood is not working. You can swap the relay with one next to it to see if it is bad. When you swap the relay turn on the ignition again and see if you hear the fuel pump.
