Default B16a starts, idles great for a sec, then stalls. Help! Searched......

Obd1 B16a in a 99 DX hb.

Ok got mine swapped last night, it starts perfectly fine. Runs awesome for 3-7 seconds , then dies. The more I cycle the key (to build fuel pressure) the longer it will idle. If I touch the gas at all it dies instantly. I know everything is wired right. I tried swapping the MAP and TPS but haven't tried resetting the ECU in between. It just sounds like it runs out of gas. Checked fuel pump with a test light and it's staying on until after the car stalls. Can't be injectors because it idles as smooth as can be (during it's 5 seconds of glory). Any suggestions???
