84 will not start

[brimis]

My 84 will not start, the car never had a starting problem in the 8 months I've owned it. The car cranks over, but will not start.
Last night I warmed the car for 5/10 minutes as I always do. Went to the store and upon returning to the car it turned over for about 5 seconds before it started. This never happened before, always starts right up.

I replaced the 1/2 shaft ujoints last month and wanted to make sure the bolts did not loosen. I started the car and let it warm 5/10 minutes and backed in the driveway. Jacked the car, checked the bolts, all is fine, release car from jack and now it will not start at all.

I'm sure checking the 1/2 shafts has nothing to do with the starting problem. I guess it all started last night when it took about 5 seconds to start.
Please get me going in the right direction.

When you turn the key to the "ON"position, you should hear the fuel pump run for 2 seconds. If not, check the fuel pump relay. If the relay isn't working, you can still get power to the fuel pump through the oil pressure switch. It just takes a few seconds of cranking in order to build up oil pressure to close the switch.
