    Fuel pump doesnt turn on unless it sees air movement past the vaf iirc. So with just the key on there is no pressure. How did you check it?

    With spark im not sure if its connected to the vaf but i dont think so.
    You could check resistance across the coil, it may have quit.
    Sometimes the icm in the distributor quits but it usually gives warning and is heat related.
    How did it die? Did it sputter a bit or was it instantly off?

      There is a test port for the fuel pump near the master cylinder. T shaped 2 pin connector. The ICM is located next to the coil on the driver strut tower. Check your fuses first... Again, on the strut tower.
