94 chevy 5.7L wont turn on the fuel pump

My 1994 Chevy Silverado 350 V8 5.7L 4x4 manual transmission will turn over but wont start. I don't hear the fuel pump kicking on even after replacing the fuel pump relay and checking all the fuses. What should I do now? Is it a bad ground? Where should i look?

Did you check the fuse under the hood for the pump it is under the cover on the firewall passenger side. If it is ok the pump is bad. You should hear the pump run when you turn the key on for 2-3
seconds before starting the truck. Check the wiring harness going to the pump to be sure the wiring is not broken some where. If you can spray fuel in the TBI and it starts fuel is the problem if not look at fire.

Undo the fuel line where it joins the fuel rail to your injectors.. it is under extreme pressure so be careful.. get someone to crank car for a second or two and if fuel sprays out then its not a fuel problem..

Can a 94 chevy cheyenne transmission interchange with a 97 chevy silverado tranmission

Will it physically fit? yes. Will it be a direct replacement any everything hook right up and plug right in? If we are talking about an automatic then no. 1994's wiring was completely different than the 1997. Can it be made to work? possible, but I believe it would be more trouble trying to make it work than if the correct transmission were located and installed. If it is a cost issue where he has a good trans out of a 1994 he might see if a salvage yard will do some partial trading for the correct trans.

Reverse out on 94 Chevy 1500

Look under the truck and check for loose or broken wires leading to the transmission, if this looks ok you probably have an issue with the transmission electrol control module, these units are about $100.00 used from a junk yard and you will be taking a chance since this may not solve the problem, make sure the transmission filter is not clogged or fluid level is low.
