Truck Broke

So i am without a vehicle once again. My truck broke down on me Friday night. i have spent ALL weekend underneath it taking it apart and getting parts. Its not getting any gas to the carb so i had to troubleshoot to see what caused that to happen. The injecters are working. And the fuel filter isnt clogged but i went ahead and replaced that. The fuel pump relay fuse is good. So it could either be the sending unit or the fuel pump. So now that i narrowed it down to two possible items i have to check those. And lucky me the sending unit is on top of the gas tank and the fuel pump is inside the gas tank. Theres two ways i can get to it one drop the tank or two take the bed off. Since i have had to drop a gas tank before and i know how much of a pain in the ass it is i decided to pull the bed off. That way i can also see if the sending unit is good. So last night i finally got the bed off and the sending unit seems to be good. So i now have to go and take the fuel pump out of the gas tank and hope that is the problem and the only problem. So i called the auto parts store and they have to order a fuel pump. They told me it would be atleast maybe Wednesday before it comes in.
