Default Fuel Pressure Regulator?

I`m having a fuel issue with my 01 Trans Am. Does anyone know where the fuel pressure regulator is located? Are they prone to go bad? And where is the fuel pump relay located? I found the one under the hood but is there another one located near the tank? Thanks!

The regulator is in the tank.

OK thanks. Is there a relay near the tank that could be bad or is it more that likely the fuel pump that died? Car has 51K miles.

I would check to see if you have voltage at the connector in the back of the car.

There is only one relay and it's in box up front.

OK so how many miles is a stock pump usually good for? I`d hate to drop the tank if the pump is good. Car is randomly stalling and I`ve replaced and checked almost everything but the pump. No SES light and car has 51K miles.

they don't last long when you run them dry out of gas.
