I believe Ford used an inertia switch.
To test the system install a fuel pressure gauge on the injector manifold.
Key on starts a 2 second prime run of the fuel pump.
Engine cranking, oil pressure increases and runs the fuel pump.
Engine running, oil pressure = fuel pressure.
There is a gray wire to the fuel pump. If this wire is broken run a new one.

Thanks for the reminder.
