Right, don't get pissy, and stop writing everything with a capital.
Don't hold the rev's over 5k  Will only kill the engine.
Check all fuses as fuse for the pump might have gone.
Try driving around the block gently and see if you notice any noises etc, don't rag it, just gentle.

Engine Choking, hearing for the fuel pump or anything slightly strange.
Have you checked the oil ?
