1989 Chevy Camaro V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 100. XX miles

I have an 89 Iroc 5.7 TPI. It tarts only when I spray starting fluid in the throttle body and the engine stays running. Whe I shut off engine and try to re-start, it just cranks. I checked for fuel pressure by depressing the plunger on the fuel psi test port with KO and it appears to have no pressure. It seems that something is disableing the fuel pump. Any idea what it is?

Hi:

You have a fuel pump relay that could be bad or the pump itself. You will need to check for power to the pump. If you are getting it, replace the pump. If no power is found, check the relay and fuse.

Let me know what you find.
