No fuel to the filter yet, where is this fuel pressure tester?
I'd like to try this before I finish taking out the pump

It looks like a bicycle tire valve with a Schrader valve core. On the fuel line.

Looks like the # 4 & 5 are measuring open. I think they're supposed to read between .3 and 4 ohms. I think this might be it

Really big thanks to everyone who replied. I know you all are busy and I appreciate your time!

Last silly question for a while- Toyota fuel pump or is there another equivalent option?
I'd go OEM, and keep in mind that Jody Davis at Sunshine will give a 25% discount to MUD members with typically overnight availability. I'm not sure what else you should replace along with the pump (gaskets, pump filter, etc,) but you can ask her. Too bad you already replaced the fuel filter.....there's a new OEM one in the box of parts I still have for you!
OEM or at least Denso brand.
Glad you found your culprit.

Just get a Denso from Parts Geek or the like. That is what I did with mine. Working great.

I don't hear this part fails very often. I really think that running it out of gas is what killed it.
But hey if you have any other questions or want any specific pics let me know. It's all apart in the driveway. I'm waiting for parts from Amazon.

You are probably right about the running out of gas/kill. Many pumps depend on the fluid being pumped to provide cooling.

Running Like a top- the worst thing about the job was the new fuel line attached to the pump was a little long. I am a complete novice to this and i would say 45 minutes to get at the pump and vacum all the mud out and 15 minutes for the actual install.
Thanks to everyone for you time and advice!
Please let me know if you have any questions.
