If you try the new key with no luck, then in answer to your previous question, you can remove the engine trim cover (just pull off carefully) and you will see the fuel rail. There is a brass covering over the fuel gauge port, has a schrader valve under the cover (don't lose the copper seal ring). A gauge can be put on the schrader valve, or as a simple test (be careful here) push in on the center of the schrader valve core and see if there seems to be pressure. The gauge is a better way of course, most people don't have one in their back pocket though. If you push in on the schrader valve core and "0" comes out, you can bet that you're on the right track. If "something" comes out, the results are a little inconclusive because you know something is there, but you don't know if it's enough for the engine to run on. Just don't get gas in your eyes, use goggles or something.

Gilly,
No luck on the truck starting w/ the spare key.
Proceeding now to check fuel delivery.
Actually, Gilly, I'm just gonna have the pump replaced. Let you know what happens.
