Have you got normal fuel pressure at the injectors ?
Are the injectors getting power and ground pulse from the computer ?
I have good fuel pressure at the rail. I haven't tested the injectors. I can sometimes coax it to run briefly by pumping the go pedal. Since I posted the last time I have found fuel in the air box as well as the vacuum line going to the pressure regulator
Liquid fuel in the vac line to the pressure regulator would mean the regulator is blown. The engine could be flooding out.
Try pulling the harness to the injectors to disable, or pull the vac hose and allow it to dump into a container and see if the engine runs.

check the asd relay in fuse box under hood look very close at contacts if replacing fuse does not fix wires in box may be burnt under neath

try checking the thermostat control senser. it caused my bronco to start for a second and then die. after a while it would finally start and run for a while then die driving down the road. i changed the thermostat control senser and it fixed all problems of dieing
SOURCE: car dies when accelerate. do i need new fuel pump?
Hello;
It sounds from your description that the fuel pump is weak. To check the fuel pressure you need a fuel pressure test gauge for fuel injection. Attach the gauge to the test port schrader valve and turn the ignition to the on position. Record the reading. Now start the engine and record that reading. Unplug the pressure regulator vacuum line and record the reading.
The pump should have pressure with in specs but if low, start with the installation of a new complete pump. It is located in the fuel tank. Also replace your fuel filter.
Hope this helps you.
Thanks;

It's got all the symptoms of a leak in the fuel line. You may want to start backward at the tank and work your way all the way to the carb to find it but it would be surprising if it was something else. All the best.
