Exclamation Need Help please

Hello i have a 1986 Ford F150 and i was hoping to pick a few brains out there because mine can't seem to figure out something with my truck. ok i'll start this off, when i was driving it just quit........... ok now i know first to ask is is there spark? yes my fingers were tingling for about 2 hours after the pumps don't have power the injectors do not have any power the relay that i found seems to be good its the one when you pop the hood it's there on the drivers side firewall. none of my books say what that one is for but i bough a new one and nothin. she will start on the spray kinda, if i take the air intake line off and put gas right down her throt shell start. other than that it won't run long and just stop again.... help please.

It sounds like you have a 302. Have you tried pulling engine codes yet? That should always your first step when diagnosing an EFI engine.
