Default car cranking but not starting.

so last night my 93 eg didnt want to start. its been showing signs of a slight starting problem starting to build up. on friday it did not want to start but i finally got it going. and then on saturday afternoon i remote started it and it would start and then die. but if i started it by key it would start as long as i got on the gas as soon as i turned it over.

so at first i was thinkin my fuel filter could be clogged, but now im leaning towards fuel pump because on top of my fuel filter i have a fuel pressure gauge and i was thinking, correct me if im wrong, that as soon as i turn the key into the second position so that everything comes on and the fuel pump primes, i should be getting pressure to the gauge right? cause im getting nothing.

so my first thing to check was the fuses but there isnt any fuses labeled fuel pump. a friend said that civics dont have fuel pump fuses. is this true?

so...any ideas would be very much appreciated. this is on my lsvtec set up btw

hmm.. i would say.. do the basics.. like check if you have spark.. fuel.. ect.. if it cranks but doesnt start.. replace crank/cam sensor? but check the basics before doing so.. dont wanna lead you in the wrong direction..
