You need around 40-45 psi fuel pressure. Just a little flow isn't going to do anything with fuel injection. If you have adequate fuel pressure and no spark, the plugs would be wet.
To check for spark, remove the DIC and plugs, then check the plugs for gas, which I doubt is there. Replace the plugs in the DIC. Connect a ground wire to the threads of the plugs and connect the other end to a good engine ground. Then reconnect the DIC wiring harness, crank the engine over and check for spark.
The quickest test for a bad fuel pump is to spray some starting fluid into the throttle body. If it starts for a few seconds, it's a bad fuel pump.
And, you should always have a spare DIC because these can fail at any time and leave you stranded... Ron
