Won't start, need help with my TBI

1989 Convertible 305 or 350 (Long story too lazy to check) T-5 TBI

My battery died so I jumped it (Roll down hill, pop clutch). Started just fine put it back on my hill and parked it. Finished cleaning the garage and then went to jump it again, no go. Jumped it with jumper cables no go but it WAS cranking over just no starting. Put gas in the engine and it started right up. I thought, Great no fuel to the carb. Disconnected both lines into the carb and one poured out gas but other did not. Checked to see if it was squirting gas into the barrels and it wasn't.

Now, I have a funny feeling my CPU went "poof" (Knocks on wood). So how do I check to see if the prongs at the TBI is getting any current of what ever is transferred through the wires (Ohms, resistance or voltage)? What should I expect it to be in good working order?
