U get fuel 2 the thottle body carb. But the 2 injectors in the carb. Aren't releasing fuel into the carb.. I think its a sensor or module like the pick-up coil or the stop-run module or whatever tells the injectors 2 release fuel 2 the engine.

That's a throttle body, not a carburetor. Before you get wrapped around the axle and pedal down the wrong road, you need to do a complete diagnosis and check for spark. More than likely it's missing too. The common cause is the pickup assembly under the rotor in the distributor.

Pulses from the pickup assembly tells the engine computer to turn on the Automatic Shutdown (ASD) relay. That relay sends voltage to the alternator field, the injector, the ignition coil, and the fuel pump or pump relay. If you have spark during cranking, the ASD relay has to be turning on and the pickup assembly has to be working. Chances are it's not.
