Another no start...

Well two weeks ago my car was running, i went to my dads on friday with the car running fine but by the time i got back on sunday she wouldnt run, so far i have replaced the MAF, adjusted my TPS, iv changed the fuel pump, I'v got pressure up to my rail and i have spark, she will run on starting fluid but as soon as that runs out then she dies. iv ran my codes but i cant figure them out, its only flashing 2 short codes and thats it, iv checked my injectors and my EMC is sending signal to them , iv also replaced the igniton module, cap, and button, and also all the filters on the car are new. any help here? im pointing towards clogged injectors or a bad fuel regulator as thats why the car wouldnt start when i first bought it, the vacum line off the regulator was melted shut and the pump was bad, i changed those and all the fuses and she started right up and ran for a week until i left for that weekend. help please?

Maybe fuel pump relay?

Nevermind, you said you have pressure at the rail.
