You won't, as they don't have one!

What testing have you done to condemn the pump?

There's power going to the pump but the pump isn't making a single bit of noise there's no sign of life there

Make sure your earth for pump is good. A common upgrade on these cars is to rewire the pump circuit , maybe a good time if the pump is shot.

The likes of 'MSD'.

Also as said check the ground is ok, also if it has been allowed to run low on fuel the pump may have sucked dirt off and jammed it?

they do seize up on occasion if they dry out, a good clout with the wood end of a hammer can sometimes clear the obstruction
