did you by any chance mess up the timing? Although. this might not cause a no fuel situation

Also, Have you tried bridging the fuel pump relay (#103, I believe)? It might be faulty and nothing to do with the water pump replacement.

next, inspect the fuel pump and try knocking the fuel tank really good with the ignition on. The fuel pump might be on it's way ou after all these years.
