The car was running good when parked several months ago. Now there is NO fuel fuel pressure to the fuel rail. What may be the cause for this? Is there a reset for the fuel pump?

Try this look at the gas tank you will see a square part that sit's a little lower then the rest of the tank.Get a hammer turn it side way's and while cranking it smack it with the hammer see if the car start's.Also do you have a multimeter?

I do not have a multimeter. Is there a fuel pump reset switch that may have tripped that I can reset?

There is no fuel pump reset did you try what i asked you too with the hammer?Also how do you know there is no fuel pressure?Unless it start's from you cranking it and smacking it with a hammer side way's then your going to have to invest in some tool's to test it to figure it out like a multimeter to start with.
