fuel pump problem?? Relay??

Alright i have a 82 dont know the model. Bottom of the line i guess. Anyways my fuel pump isnt working anymore. I bypassed all the wirring and found out the fuel pump itself is working fine it just isnt getting any power to it anymore. I know there has to be a fuse and relay for this thing but where is it? I do not have the cover for the fuse box so i cant find it plus i cant find anything in the haynes manuel about the relays location either. I heard the fuel pump and tach are on the same circuit?? I can tell you my tach works just fine. Thanks!

Engine fuse powers the pump. If that's good then the pump should come on when the key is in the run position. First check all of the connections to the fuel pump. If that doesn't work, start checking the wiring. download the wiring diagram for your year, that will give you a headstart.
