Not getting fuel?

Well I believe my 92 z28 is getting fire. I can spray starting fluid in the throttle body and it'll bust off then it seems like after it burns the starting fluid off it just wants to turn over. I can hear the pump prime up for about 2 seconds and I've got good pressure at the rail. Due to this I don't think the fuel pump is going bad or at least I hope not. Anyone else ever had this problem?

I have. My problem was the ECM had no power to it (corroded wire), so it never fired the fuel injectors, giving me this problem. Check the fuse marked ECM in your fuse panel. Was the car running fine before this? Any problems?
