this is a pretty tough one. you could have a intake gasket leak, vacuum leak etc...

I recommend paying the $100 fee to have it diagnosed at a shop. From there you can figure out if it's worth doing the job your self.

Is your CEL on? If so, have you had it read by OBD II?

If the fuel pump is not turning on you probably have corrosion in the fuel sending unit connector. It is very common. Try wiggling the connectors on the sending unit and then try restarting the truck. There was a recall for this.


1999-2003 NISSAN FRONTIER, 2000-2003 XTERRA; VOLUNTARY RECALL CAMPAIGN FUEL SENDING UNIT
Nissan has determined that some 1999-2003 model year Nissan Frontier vehicles, equipped with the 6 cylinder engine and 2000-2003 model year Nissan Xterra vehicles, equipped with the 4 and 6 cylinder engine may have a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety. There is a possibility that the fuel pump terminal on the fuel-sending unit may develop a crack in its plastic molding which could cause the terminal strip to corrode under some environmental conditions. If corrosion occurs, the terminal strip could eventually break. This will cause the fuel pump to stop operating and will result in not being able to start the engine or cause the engine to stop running without warning during vehicle operation, which could result in a crash. To prevent this condition from occurring, Nissan is conducting a Voluntary Safety Recall Campaign to replace or repair the fuel-sending unit.
