Default Crank, Cranks, and ranks won't start until?

I tried all starting fluid I had and it tried to start. I put just a bit of gasoline in each side of tbi and it fired right up. I am right that it is the fuel pump or completely clogggged filter? I took supply line loose from tbi turned key on and could see no gas being pumped nor could I hear the fuel pump back at the tank. I am at a loss, PLEASE ADVISE

Yup, most likely a bad fuel pump, but if you have a voltmeter check the voltages on the wires before going thru the hassle of dropping the tank.

if u dont hear the 'buzz' of the fuel pump turning on with the key in the on position then yes with your symptoms it is most likely the fuel pump that is bad
