I jumped the relay, the fuel pump motor runs but still no fuel pressure?

Nick at Pelican. Yes Nick, the engine runs strong with starting fluid. I have replaced the fuel filter and relay on 7/15/13, yesterday purchased from Pelican. I checked, still no measurable fuel pressure at the Schrader valve maybe 5 psi instead of the approx. 50 psi it should be. I jumped the relay, the fuel pump motor runs but still no fuel pressure. My last resort is to pull the fuel pump not a fun task check it, replace it if necessary. What else could be the problem before I do that. Thanks for your quick reply and help.

It's probably the fuel pump but the output hose in the tank could be broken allowing pressurized fuel to leak right back into the tank or possibly a plugged fuel filter but unlikely
