Also check fuse #6 located in the passenger compartment. It's not clear if this fuse block is under the rear seat, or under the dash. Concerning the fuel pump relay that you said it "clicks", make sure that is actually the pump relay and not some other application. The car should have a pump relay but I can not confirm the location...poor diagram I have. Also, power might not be getting to the pump....loose plug?
