Could be fuel pump, fuel pump relay, etc. Need to have this checked out by a mechanic.

Definatly sounds like the pump, Try hitting on the bottom of the tank while someone is cranking it, if it starts its the pump.

william is stuck on an alternator....if a new battery was installed,the vehicle would run with a bad alternator....listen to the other guys and have that fuel pump checked out....
