Like Melleah wrote, clean the contacts for battery with sand paper, then charge battery and test. Did they wire the fuel pump right? The wire color can be confusing wth those pumps potentially putting a parasitic draw on the battery. Rear about parasitic draw and test after you charge the battery using a cheap volt meter.
