84 Deville won't start

Hello All,
I'm new here and have searched already so just be patient with me. With that being said, this is my first Caddy. It's a 84 Deville w/4.1 and it wont start. Long story short 2nd fuel pump later and i am now hearing it prime when key in ignition. Changed fuel filter, tightened it all up, let it prime several times to re-pressurize system and fuel line from filter, to solid line has hole and leaks. Change line, try to start car and will not start. The car turns over, and will start every time with starting fluid but not seeing fuel squirt from the 2 injectors. What else can i look at as the problem. Thanks

I have a Buick with this issue and I haven't figured it out yet. I'm hoping to get a clue here. I never thought of the fuel injection fuses. A lot of Caddy's and Buicks have another set of fuses under the hush panel on the passenger side. I don't know if the 84 Deville does or not. You should try to find those fuel injection fuses though. It does sound like the fuel injectors just aren't getting power like mine.
