what sort of pump? put the hoses on the right way? you sure its the right pump? connection put on correctly? fuse not blown? can you hear the relay clicking when you turn ignition on? have you taken relay out and jumped the contacts to manually power pump?

Delphi brand fuel pump and the people i brought it off said it was the right pump for this year model car and i have cheked all the fuel lines to make sure they are on the right ones and i mite go and check the fuses now and how do i jump it manually never done it that way before

have a look at the relay, might have pin markings on it showing that the contacts are, just get a split pin and bridge them. also get a multimeter to make sure there is power to the relay contact would be a good start as well.
