cranks, won't fire up, got spark

I parked my 1990 turbo convertible last fall, and had a nice day today...Decided to try and get it out for a cruise, but it wouldn't fire up. It was cranking fine, but not firing up. I pulled the spark plugs out and they were dry. Once I saw this, I pulled one of the grommets in the intake, poured a little dribble of gasoline into the intake, and tried again. The engine fired up and ran for about 3 or 4 seconds till the fuel I poured into the intake was consumed, then it shut back off. I don't think I don't think I heard the fuel injectors clicking when it was turning.
could this be a fuel pump failure maybe? How can I test if the fuel pump is getting power, and I have fuel pressure (I don't have a fuel pressure gauge) What else could keep the EFI system from injecting fuel?
