I have a 92 cadillac eldorado and i just replced all eight injectors, a complete tune up, new starter, new fuel pump, and the car will not stay started by itself. The only way that the car will stay started is when i am spraying starter fluid into the carburetor and when I stop spraying into the carburetor the car cuts off. Is there any other fuel parts or tests that can be run in order for me to figure out what the problem is?

A fuel pressure test, should be around 40 psi at key on. If there is no pressure, you would need to verify power and ground at the fuel pump connector. Upon determining that power atnd ground exist, you need to replace the in-tank fuel pump.
