Fuel pump not priming HELP!

So I was driving to work the other day, and my car died on me a couple times. After that I got done the road and it died again. I immediately noticed that the fuel pump wasn't priming/priming very weak. I was dreading the fact that it is the fuel pump it self and starting doing research. I had a reman MAF and wanted to replace it anyways so I started there since that was a problem I have had before with this car, and still no fuel pump. I also set pin 85 as well. So as I go down the list, what should I consider next? CPS the actually pump itself? Also if that is the case is there an easier way to remove the pump minus dropping the tank? Thanks in advance.
 


The Tank does not need removed. I think only 1997 the 1st half years didnt have the Access hole. Yours being a 2000 has the hole right behind the rear seat under the carpet in the trunk. Takes 10 min to change the pump
 
jump your fuel pump from a 12v source. if the pump primes, it could be a bad ground/something electrical. if it doesn't prime, replace it.
