Do you hear the pump run when the truck is not starting?
The pump should be running when you have oil pressure and also should run for a few seconds when you first turn the key to run position.Check this.
If you hear the pump running and still no starting,use a good scan tool to get direction to the problem.
DO NOT change parts until you can verify the problem and THEN change only the part that is defective and proven defective.

SOURCE: Ford Escort 1998 fuel pump not working.

good old ford lol, try looking at the crank sensor its located at the front of the engine tucked in right hand side of exhaust manifold and gearbox, two pin plug, i have also known these to have no end of faults with the fusebox.
easy to remove, and solder the connections inside they all suffer eventually, if your not to handy with cars i recommend taking to a auto electrician, easy if you know how. Good luck Davelee

SOURCE: 1997 Gmc yukon fuel relay switch continues to burn out

I would have to check the fuel pump with a scope to look at the pattern and check the amps it is drawing . the grounds need to be checked and the pcm checked and reflashed. on the fuel system that would affect the fuel pump and relay to where it would burn it out is grounds , pcm , fuel pump , fuel pump relay. so you should convince them to replace the fuel pump and fuel pump relay under warranty and replace the pcm . and get a diagram and check all grounds. If the pcm is damaged and the current has been affected and instead of say a 5 volt or 2 volt signal it now has a 13.5 volt signal or if a ground is out then the temp of the relay will keep rising non energized a relay is about 99 energized it is around 140 you can check to see how hot that relay is getting. and if i remember correctly you want the pcm drivers checked.

SOURCE: Hard Starts, Rough Idle

Certainly possible.Key on /engine off cycles the pump for 3 secs.In a quiet place like an enclosed garage you can hear these pumps running and at this stage it might sound abnormal, louder and squeel-ish in a sense.Then can be verified by taking fuel pressure readings with a test gauge...good luck

Have a 90 Buick LeSabre that seems to kill fuel pumps every year for the last 4 years. It has been replaced each time at differing dealers and with new wiring harnesses. What could cause this?

How full do you keep your fuel tank ? If you repeatedly let the fuel level low ,this will cause premature failure ! Need's to stay around 1/2 tank or fuller , keeps fuel pump lubricated . So if you run your vehicle with a 1/4 tank or less all the time , this will cause fuel pump problems .Could have a resistance problem in the electrical circuit ! Does the connector at the pump look burnt when changed ?

Tell me some ideas i'm stumped... I had a bad fuel pump and I replaced it, and pump now comes on, the car started and drove for an hour and parked for the night. Next day I have the same problem the pump...

Could be the fuel pump. Where did you get it? Years ago I quit buying pumps, alternators, and starters from discount stores. I bought a fuel pump that died the next day. Only to do the job again. Now I work I do get OE parts. I have only replaced one OE part in the last ten+ years. I could even tell you how many discount parts I have replace that are less than 6 months old. Chinese made junk.

I just had the computer on my Terrano rebooted, which seems to have solved the problem with it 'die'-ing and surging. One of the local Auto Electrical places sorted it.

Replaced left headlamp (3rd time) still will not come on

of course it could, the relays only last so long and some times the store bought ones last less time than the ones bought from the dealer.
