With the key ON, depress the throttle slowly from the engine 
compartment. As the throttle opens you should hear a series of clicks 
from the injectors.

AND

With the key ON and the coil disconnected, use a wrench to slowly 
turn the engine over. Listen for the point where the injectors click, 
which indicates that they are opening. You can also mimic this by 
taking out the dist and turning it by hand, thus triggering the FI 
trigger points.

If you don't hear the clicks, then there's some problem. It could be 
anything from a bad ground, bad wiring, bad brain, to rust frozen 
injectors.

Or maybe your pump just hasn't run long enough to fill the fuel ring. 
Are you actually getting fuel pressure back at the engine?
