are the injectors firing? you need a noid light to check, if it'll start when "fuel" is added then I would think that is the problem .

Run a direct wire from fuel pump to battery. Putting a fuseable link by the battery is a good idea.

check your cam position sensor or maybe your crank sensor,it might have something to do with your ignition system
