240 died and won't come back 200 1982

About a week ago my daughter's 240 DL CIS K-Jet came to a dead stop while driving and had to be towed home. At the time posted a SOS and got really great advice. But now that I've tried just about everything and it still won't run I' really at a lost.
The car cranks fine and has plenty of spark and it will actually start if i spray starter fluid into the hose that connects to the CIS motor, but will die as if it is not getting fuel.
I have installed a new fuel filter and fuel relay switch, verified that the pre-pump is pumping a good flow and replaced the main fuel pump - but still no joy.
I have tried to start it with the fule relay jumpered.
I know i am getting spark because it will actually run for a few seconds when cranked with starter fluid.
I have gooed fuel pressure through the fuel filter, but after that it seems to be cut off somewhere. I have checked and the injectors do not seem to be getting gas nor doe the cold start injector.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! If i don't get this running soon, I suppose i will part it out, but i hate to do that because up until now, it has been running great.
thnks you
