How much gas did you put in? I have run mine out a couple of times (faulty sending unit), and found that you need to put at least two or three gallons in to get it to start. I ended up having to go back to the station.

I had that problem twice, once with the pump and once with the relay...just swap the fan relay to see if its that or take out your back seat and turn the key to the on position you/ll definitely hear the pump go on or the line pressurized
