'99 F150 4.6 4x2 No Fuel

Are there pics or diagrams of where the wiring for the fuel pump are? From the pump, to the fuses. Do they run along the frame rail & into the engine compartment ?
I can't hear anything at the fuel tank when I turn the key on
I checked the fuse & it's okay
I swapped the relay & still no noise at the tank
The button on the PCM, at the Pass kick panel, was not sticking up. I could put my finger down the hole & felt the button but nothing
So I was curious if mice, red squirrels or chipmunks chewed through some wires, b4 replacing the pump
The diagrams that I saw didn't show where the wires ran
Forgot to mention that she was used out in the field & woods. Parked for awhile then used again. Went to move it & she ran for 75yds & died. Runs only by pouring gas into the carb, then dies
Any suggestions or Links would help
Thank you,
OleScott

There used to be a thread that contained a shop manual link that could be downloaded. Do a search to see if you can find it.

Thank you, we found a relay that was bad.
The fuel pump works now
The Emergency pump shutoff button was't tripped
The fuel filter though was badly rusted
Tried to unhook the pressure lines to it & couldn't disconnect them !!
We cut the filter off of the lines but still can' unlock the pressurized fittings. HELP
Can we cut the fittings off & hose clamp them to the new filter ?? Was told that there is to much pressure for that. Radiator hose clamps work for the radiators
Is there something else we can do if we cut off those fittings ??

I had that happen to mine. For some reason the quick disconnect doesn't like to be used more than 10x. So I just used fuel injection hose with fuel injection clamps...

Got the fuel line hose designed for higher pressure fuel injection from my local AdvanceAuto and got fuel injection hose clamps like these: https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/...njection+clamp

I loped off the section of aluminum tubing and then flared it using my pipe flaring tool. Then slid the rubber hose on, clamped it using 2 clamps, then did the same for the fuel filter.

I found it makes it a LOT easier to remove the fuel filter now. lol

Edit: Here is my fiasco... the pictures are a little different after folks recommendations... but just read the whole thread: https://www.f150online.com/forums/ar...fuel-line.html
