Default starting trouble

my brothers pos 90 ef 4 door civic will start but immediatly shut down... The fuel pump does not prime. i checked the ecu fuse and it is fine, i didn't see any fuses for the actual fuel pump, i would first like to test the wire and see if it is getting power but i don't know its location or color and second i would like to know if taking the pump out on this car is dropping the tank or taking out the back seat. My solution to this problem would be selling it to a junk yard but my father just bought it for him so i guess he doens't want to lose out.... anyway any help would be appreciated so i can waste as little time as possible fixing this car.
thanks in advance -John
