Ranger Trouble

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out a general idea of what may be wrong with my truck. I have a 2002 Ranger Edge with a 3.0 V6, and the truck with crank over easy, but won’t start at all. I don’t know cars well so I am not sure what could be the cause of the issue. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated :)

PATS system engaged.
Old gasoline.
No gasoline (happens more than you think).
Bad spark plugs.
Fuel pump failed.
Plugged-up air intake.
Clogged fuel line.
Clogged injectors.
Bad ECM module.
Activated inertia switch.

To name a few.

Try this the next time. Turn the key to the on poss ( Not to turn over the engine) and off three time in a row. Than on the fourth turn the key to run and see what happens....
If it starts than you have a fuel pump issue.
