Alright, it's fixed! I had my neighbor, who happens to be a mechanic, come check it out. After much fiddling, we deduced that the problem was with the wiring in the actual fuel pump assembly. In case anybody has that issue, there's how to work with it.

A buddy of mine told me it might be the fuel pump relay, so I went and swapped that out, but to no avail.

Okay, update time. I went to O'Reilly's, the place I got the first pump, and they swapped that one out for free, which was nice. I put the new pump in, tried to start it, and nothing happened. I did the fuel test again, just to see what was happening, and no fuel came out of the hose.

Thanks guys. I'll go check it out after work and keep you posted.

Alright, I did the fuel test, and nothing came out. I should mention that between your reply and my testing, I tried spraying some starting fluid in by the air filter. When I did that, it started up, ran for a few seconds, then died.

The fuel pump was aftermarket. I used the same model as the one the previous owner installed. I didn't see any corrosion. How do I check spark and fuel? Sorry, I have very scattered knowledge of this sort of thing.

Alright, so my car has been running fine for about three weeks, but today I tried to start it with no luck. The engine was turning over, but nothing was happening. About four weeks ago, my fuel pump crapped out on me, and while trying to pinpoint that problem I replace all of the spark plugs and wires, the fuel filter, EGR valve, and then the fuel pump. I just now tried swapping out the crank sensor, and that didn't do anything. Please help!
