What i have trouble with is understanding what the hell you're saying.
How do you know you have no power to the fuel pump? Why would you change the "crank positing senser"?
I'm sure you have spell check available. You might want to start using it.

You might want to read up on how the pump works before jumping to any conclusions. It only powers for 2 seconds when the key is first turned on and then again when the computer sees a tach signal from cranking. You need a fuel pressure gauge to know if it's working or not.
