Same advice, different reason...

Do a fuel pressure check if you don't see an obvious failure of the FPR (fuel coming out vacuum nipple). In my experience, diaphragm failure (fuel coming out vacuum nipple) usually gives a no-start condition. The other failure mode is a plugged orifice in the FPR which drives rail pressure to line pressure. This pours a lot of gas into the engine though it may still run reasonably well.
