As far as the engine not running, have you tried replacing the RCM (relay control module)?
The fuel pump relay is inside of it. These relays as well as the solder joints are failing due to age. If you don't know what I'm referring to, check out this post:

NOTE: It is not necessary to disconnect the battery to replace the RCM.
