Default 1988 Honda Accord Won't Start

I have a 1988 honda Accord I was having some problems with it like the Engine light coming on and and it wasnt starting when hot. The other day I went to start it and it just kep turning over. Hasnt stated since then Checked the coil an plugs. Checked plug wires one at a time so they went back on the same way Also I took the fuel hose off that goes to the engine an tried to start it no gas came out. Thinking it the fuel pump cause of that but wold like to get forum advice first before I spend money for mothing which I dont have much of these days And if someone could Please tell me when the fuel puml is I tired to find it from the pic in the Haynes book bu didnt see it . Is it in my tank
Thank You

You can check for power and ground at the fuel pump. A test light makes it easy.

It's in the tank. You can get to it in the trunk. It's under the left cover.
