82 Camaro won't start

I have a 1982 Camaro Pace Car with the 7 engine code. (fuel injection) I drove the car into my garage and then it would never start again. If you pour gas in the throttle body it will run until that runs out but that's all. I just wonder what it could be. I am fearing that you will say the fuel pump as it's going to be difficult to change. The reason I'm asking is that on my '89 Chevy PU the same thing happened and the dealership says it is likely the computer. Any ideas or things to check would be totally appreciated!

Re: 82 Camaro won't start

Check the fuel pressure (not sure where to do that on a CFI)
Should be around 14 psi
If no pressure check the fuel pump fuse and relay.
Look in the throttle bodies while someone cranks it and see if the injectors are spraying fuel
Hook a noid light to the injector harness and crank the engine and see if the light flashes

agreed. It's definitely a fuel delivery problem, i'm sure the computer is working fine.

I'll give this a shot and let you know. I've already checked the fuse and it's fine but I haven't checked the rest.
