from the thread title, "restore", my first question is was the car previously running and suddenly stopped, or was it sitting for a while and you're trying to get it running now?

either way, check if you get power at the pump while trying to crank the engine. if you do, then check the pump itself.

Thanks for reply found problem it was in fuel pump relay. Car set for about 30 years but only has 21,000 miles on it just trying to get it back on road again. Tips on best way to clean fuel lines from bad fuel in it. I've clean fuel tank getting ready to purge fuel lines for leaks.
