Car won't start!! Immediate AID!! Please!

Ok, so obviously my Honda 1990 Civic DX, 1.5 L car won't start. It seems like gas is NOT getting into the engine for the car to start. It turns over just fine, yet it won't start. Here's what a Honda auto mechanic thought, he thought that it was the Main Relay which supplies power to the fuel pump and fuel injectors. So, with that we decided to buy a new Main Relay, replaced the old and tried the new, still the same issue. So then we thought maybe the fuel filter wasn;t pumping gas. So, we took out the hose that was connected to the throttle body that pumped fuel into it. Discovered that fuel IS being pumped. However, it still seems like the engine is getting no gas.

A week ago my car completely died, no jump start was able to aid. However, once we got it towed back to my place, it started up the next day. Ran great, but once i shut the car off, it wouldn't start again. I'm assuming if i tried to start it the next day, it would have started up again. It seemed gutless when trying to start it though, it wasn't a smooth start.

My dad and i are thinking that it may be a problem with the fuel injectors. Since gas is being pumped and the main relay works fine.

ANY SUGGESTIONS?!??!?! Anything would be greatly appreciated. The best part is that i'm stuck 400 miles away from my dad so he can't fix it and/or find out what the problem is.

Thanks to those who aid me in this time of desperation... Since i do need a car for college kind of...

Is your car a 5spd? If so try this

It confuddled me and caused my car to sit in a parking lot for 2 days before i found it by my own ingenuity and common sense, after going over a wiring schematic. It wasnt until AFTER I got it home that I found this link. Also, this little tiny bugger is the sole reason why my red hatch wouldnt start and why I bought it off the guy for 350 bucks lol, only to fix it a few hours later, again by dumb luck.
