I would start with the easy stuff first and see if the electric low pressure fuel pump is actually delivering fuel to the fuel filter first before doing anything else.
You could simply disconnect the fuel feed pipe to the engine and just briefly turn the key to position 2 for a couple of seconds, there should be fuel coming out.
