After it has ran a bit have you tried to push a pen or something on the fuel rail and seen if gas shoots out or just barely runs out

Put a pressure gauge on the fuel rail Harbor Freight has a cheap set for less than $20.

If I'd had the fuel pressure gauge when I was trying to figure out what was wrong with my 90 XJ last fall, it would have saved me a lot of time...
