Hey Guys, my jeep sat for about 10 years with a dry gas tank. I checked everything new battery spark plugs every thing works except there's no fuel in the fuel rail. When I start I don't hear the fuel pump but I hear the relay clicking. What should I do. Is the pump rusted? Because there's no sound coming form the pump.
Best regards Hugo
 
It sounds like you may have a bad fuel pump.

Drop the tank and with the fuel pump plugged in but partially removed from the tank, have someone turn the ignition to the on position. You should hear the fuel pump prime. If it doesn't, then your fuel pump is almost certainly bad.

I would of course start by checking the fuse though.

Where can I find that fuse
 
Honk your horn, if that works swap the horn relay with the fuel pump relay and see if it starts.
