The fuel pump should come on for a couple of seconds when first turning on the ignition. Then the fuel pump should be on constantly when starting or running the engine. There is a relay that needs to be fired by the ECU to turn on the fuel pump and that relay should be in the engine compartment.

Also confirm that the fuse for the fuel pump is not blown.

Boy do I feel DUMB, it was the fuse that blew, now my next question, why did it blow, as now it runs fine, would you think there is a problem with the pump as the fuse did blow?

Good, you found the problem and corrected it. As for the fuse blowing, there could be an intermittent short to ground downstream of the fuse. Also if the fuel pump seized up, that could cause excessive draw and pop a fuse. The fuse itself could have been "thermally stressed" and was weakened and finally popped.
