Car died after idling about 1 minute. Cranks over but won't start tried messing with mass air meter, using starter fluid and replaced fuel pump relay. I just tested the second fuel pump under the car with a 12v and it worked but the wires connected to it don't appear to be live after using test light. All fuses are good I'm not sure what the problem is seems to be electric. New to car repair so any advice helps. Thanks!

 

If you spray starting fluid into the intake then spin the engine over and it does not fire - you have no spark. Have you checked for spark?

 

I haven't. Can you lose spark plugs that quick? I drove it to the store then when I started it back up it stalled and wouldn't start. Also I have no fuel in my lines going to the injection rail that's what made me assume it was a fuel issue not a spark issue

 

Sure they could be interconnected - but no spark = no explosions with starting fluid. That will eliminate guessing the fuel pump/s are bad. (because something is not turning on the iginition system and maybe not the fuel system.

a 1991 - does that car have the 25amp blade style fuse (for the fuel injection) mounted near the battery? that melts or gets a poor connection?

All fuses in fusebox have a good connection - sometimes they melt on the ends and looks good but are not.

Wiggled the connector for the ignition amp (if applicable , sorry it's been just a few years)

engine speed sensor wiring looks good? Insulation not shredded?

 

Spare shaped fuse none apear to be blown or melted
