Yea, that sounds a lot like a dead fuel pump. When you turn the key to the run position, can you hear a humming sound coming from the rear hatch for a few seconds? That's the fuel pump priming....if you don't hear it, it could be time to replace the pump. You will have to do a little electrical checking first to make sure the pump is receiving power so you don't drop the tank for no reason.
