Try this ... find the smaller of the 2 fuel lines off the TBI follow it down till ya find some neoprene hose and crimp that bugger shut.. now go drive it and if it runs o.k. I would then start looking at fuel preasure it should be 9-13 lbs (hafta have the proper tester and ya hook it up at the fuel filter) no specs on dead head preasure ( return line blocked) but I would expect to see 25-30 lbs If the pumps capable of that,and she runs good with the return line blocked,put a new filter and preasure regulator on it,I would also put a new (Bosch or ACDelco)oxygen sensor on it if yours has over 30,000 miles on it..... Hope this helps
