Injectors won't fire

I have a 1992 Lincoln with the 3.8L v6. I replaced the ignition module on it. It used to crank but never start. Once I replaced this it started and drove at 33 MPH top speed and that was it. Now I try to start it and the injectors won't fire. I pulled one off and hooked jumpers to it and you could hear it fire. I can put starting fluid in the intake and get it to fire then obviously no fuel, so it dies. What electrical problem is this? How do I fix it? Thank you.P.S. I did check all fuses. Thank you

Check the fuel pressure make sure its on specs. No problem with pressure-could be the computer not getting a crank signal from the distributor pick-up or the crankshaft position sensor and not energizing the injector/s or a problem with the computer's quad driver/s.

I still haven't found the sensor, do you think you could take a picture of its location? Where can you buy one, I have looked on the internet and they are not easy to find. I appreciate it. Thank you
