Could be no fuel pressure, no power to the injectors, or no ground pulse from the engine computer.

I have an 1987 Chevy with throttle body fuel enjection I have a new fuel pump and new fuel filter I have fuel coming up at the throttle body when I crack the lines but the injectors arnt spraying fuel

I suggest changing the pickup in the distributor. This is what fires the injectors. If you have a noid light you can check for pulse at the injector, but my guess is there is nothing signaling the injector to fire.

Try spraying a little bit of starting fluid down the throttle body them try starting it.If it starts then replace the fuel pump because if you have enough fuel and you have spark then it should start.

My '86 5th ave will start and run as long as you keep your foot on the accelerator but dies if remove your foot.will not restart until a length of time and then repeats past actions. changed fuel pump and...

Check the throttle body butterfly flap, its propably very dirty, holding off the flap at idle will cut it out. If its dirty, then get a can of carburrettor cleaning spray and clean the throttle body, that should do the trick. Hope that helps

86 olds calais only starts if i pour fuel in throttle body fuel pump is working, is their a fuel filter by the throttle body or could it be a relay

The fuel filter is under the car, in-line. If the pump runs, it wouldn't be the relay. When you try to start it, can you see any gas spray from the injector? You could have a bad injector. Check for power going to the injector.

86 4.3 litre V6 chevy el camino bogging down, stalling out

most likely a weak fuel pump or a clogged filter. Check fuel pressure with a gauge or as its bogging down spray brake cleaner in the Throttle Body. If this allows it to increase RPM then its the pump or filter.
