2000 Windstar Won't Start

I have a 2000 Windstar SEL that refuses to start. I recently had the valve cover /intake problem fixed. Shortly after that after it sat all night the van would just turn over. It would not fire or attempt to fire.
Finally it did take off and has run fine since. Today the wife calls me from work and say's the van won't start. Battery is fine, and it started fine this morning for her. Same symptoms, no hint of even wanting to ignite on any cylinders. I checked wires, inertia switch, and finally went to the pressure relief valve for the fuel line under the hood. I turned the key off and on several times and could hear the fuel pump cycle. When I pushed in the valve I was expecting to get sprayed with gas but there was not a single drop. Is this due to fuel pump failure? I have seen people mention a fuel pump relay. Where is this and how can I check/replace it?
