Always start with the simple stuff. Do you have gas in the tank? That sounds like a stupid question, but seriously, the gauge could be bad and you are out of gas. There IS a 10 amp fuel pump fuse. Check that. When was the last time you did a fuel filter change? It could be plugged up. The fuel pump could be bad, so have someone stick their head in the trunk and turn the key to ON, and don't start. The guy in the back should hear a "whrrr..." for a few seconds if the pump is working.

It really probably is the fuel pump; where is the fuse though? Happens to alot of people and its not hard to fix really. The hatch for the pump is in your passenger side of the trunk. It only suxx if you have a full tank at the time (dangerous).

fuel pump fuse is in the fuse box under the hood on my 90. Should be the same on the s14.
