Can you keep it running by pumping the gas pedal? You say it automatically dies which leads me to assume that it does start and run but just briefly. Try pumping. If it stays running while pumping then dies again when you stop you'll have at least narrowed it down a bit.

Maybe a check of the ballast res. again. You can jump the resistor(bypass) & if it stays running .....there ya go.
How about a fuel pressure test? With a gauge hooked up.....Come back with yer readings.
