I'm pretty sure its the pump, I was starting it like every month just to make sure it still would and one day it just wouldn't start anymore, I added more gas to be sure and then i tried the fuel pump test wire under the hood and still go no pressure so it either the pump failed of the wiring all of a sudden.

As for mileage I think like 60k ish maybe

Oh okay. I saw that the odometer on the cluster read 104K and was wondering if you swapped the cluster from the same car that donated the drivetrain.

So when you first turn the key on, you don't hear any hum from the fuel pump? Just completely dead?

Yup, no hum.. I never changed it because of having to drop the rear axle to do it. I did find a how to on changing it by cutting an access hole in the hatch so if it I have to I will change it that way.

Did you also swap the rear from the Formula donor car?
I recently bought a '95 Formula that really doesn't need much but I keep trying to decide whether it's worth it for me to pick your car up just keep in the yard for spare parts.
