Jeep randomly sputtered to a stop while driving. Has gas in it. Cranks but won't turn over. Electrical system is fine. Ways to check fuel pump?

I checked the Schrader valve and gas kept coming out of it. I'll have to mess with it tomorrow when I get some more time.
Guess I'll bang on the tank and listen for the fuel pump.

There's no fuel pump fuse under the hood. Only the relay. Swapped it with another one and it didn't start.
