My 86 Z28 wont start.. any ideas?

86 Camaro Z28 305 TPI..... messin around with the mass air flow sensor... now my car wont start.. check engine light is out, no spark, tested fuel pump(works) but doesnt kick on when i turn the car on.. fuel injectors get power but dont flash at all.. car cranks but wont kick over.. everything was workin fine last night. all these things happened at once.. possible that we jumped the wrong wires on the connector, not sure what happened exactly. any ideas?

You try to put a code reader on it?

Sounds to me like the fuel pump relay, if it wont kick on when you turn the key, but it does run if you straight-wire it....right?

Does it turn over if you spray starter fluid in thru the throttle body?
