TBI car died

Problem: It would start up then die again.
Finally it would not start at all.
After fully checking everything I could think of (no injector pulse), I started pouring a little bit of gas down the TBI, wella, it would run.

Solution: I changed the ignition module, bingo, it runs again.
I was under the impression it fired the ign. it would pulse the injectors, I guess not!!!
