Greg has a '89 n/a which is LH 2.4 and doesn't have a pre-pump. You check the pump by jumpering in the fusebox, but I don't remember which fuses. If you give 12v power to the fuel pump fuse, from some other source like another fuse, the pump should run & you'll hear fuel flowing thru the fuel rail in the engine compartment.
Since his failure started gradually, I don't think its the pump.
Check for spark (Randy's suggestion) because the ECU won't run the fuel pump if it doesn't get a tachometer signal.
Greg should also read fault codes because with LH 2.4 that's just so easy to do.
